I think I've figured it out!!

3. Indeed and I enjoyed the play "Steambath"

because the writer was showing us, through the characters, that even in these various "stages" of supposed spiritual elevations that people are still going to be largely who they are. So the writer, Friedman, lays this out for us in a setting with the vulnerability of people naked except for a towel and still being who they've largely always been. The outer wrappings of distraction or disguise of who we basically are stripped away and we see we are just ourselves rather than who we think we are. I thought it was clever and a great use of simplicity in presentation.
