A Review of Adams Mystery Playhouse

Austin Price, Editor in Chief

Located off Federal Boulevard, just a hop, skip, and a jump away from Downtown Denver, a building that’s both haunting and enchanting stands looming over the road, peeking above the trees.

The glue, in its opinion, helps the shattered glass. It saves the shattered glass from any more harm, from tiny disputes to detrimental conflict. What the glue does not know is that the shattered glass no longer wants protection but to feel the war within, to fight, to live, to survive, to die. The shattered glass pleads and pleads with the glue, but the glue is relentless; it sees no problem with staying put; it is a creature of habit by pure definition: “Someone who has a noticeable number of habits that determine or characterize his behavior, a methodical kind of person, a very willing slave to routine.” (Unknown Author).
