There were multiple references to Moss' hunger especially by George. Remember the scene where Moss scarfed down George's biscuits when the maid brought out afternoon tea. And later in Act II when George & Moss are going to stay up all night for script changes George says something like I ordered coffee and sandwiches for you since you're always hungry.

All in all, I rather enjoyed the play (I've never read the book it's based on). I thought it was a very charming & well done production. I dare ask: Must every semi biographical play about performers or artists trying to make it in the biz hit the audience over the head with desperation and hunger? Not every play is A Chorus Line nor should it be!
