Theater 176 Lyndrup Long Time Since Yesterday Long Time Since Yesterday was a play by PJ Gibson and directed by Joy Vandervort-Cobb. This was very different from the first play that we were required to see. Outrage was more appealing in an intellectual way and Long Time Since Yesterday deals more with the social end. Although I enjoyed both plays‚ Long Time Since Yesterday was more entertaining to me. I thought that everything from the cast to the set to the plot in general was very well
