* FeaturelessPlaneOfDisembodiedDialogue: The play seems to give us no idea where Speaker A and B are talking, leaving the audience to decide whether they're either in some sort of Theban armory or a lovely retirement home in Guam.
Deleted line(s) 23 (click to see context) :
* NoNameGiven: Speaker A and Speaker B aren't actual names, and nothing in what remains of the play indicates that either speaker has a name.
