  1. I vote "Why A Heart Beats".

    It seems the most likely to be a show that will tell a story I like.


    Who A Heart Beats For - might just be a syntax problem for me.

    Why A Heart Beats - my winner.

    Open Heart - Doesn't promise me darkness... though it does offer the distinct hope that the protagonist will be butterflied and laid open... this was my #2 ;)

    Heartstopper - reminds me of Jennifer Love Hewitt... fairly or not.

  3. I don't mind ending sentences with prepositions, but the who/whom thing would bother me.

  4. "Why A Heart Beats" would be my first choice too.

    My second was "Heartstopper," until Travis' comment ruined it for me.

    Jennifer Love Hewitt. Ew.

  5. To be clear - I understand that that is NOT the name of a JLH movie... just close...

  6. heartstopper.

    definitely.

    it seduces me more - i want to see that play. some of the others give me a simple idea of the subject of the play, but 'heartstopper' gives me no idea other than a flavor and a sparked interest.

  7. The problem with Heartstopper is that is sounds like a thriller and this is not a thriller.

    Open Heart has a nice double meaning because it's about a heart doctor and about love among other things.

    For Whom A Heart Beats is not so great because of the bell thing.

    I'm concerned about Why A Heart Beats because I don't know that my play answers that question exactly. hmm.

    Anyway, thanks everyone!

  10. I'm with Carbajal.
    'Who A Heart Beats For' is both poetic and enigmatic. It sounds good too.

  11. Open Heart.

    For Whom the Heart Beats. Heh heh. J/K.

  12. Open Heart or Heartstopper.

    Heartstopper doesn't ring as thrillerish to me as it does to you.

    Open Heart hits the revitalization/green/hope vibe that's popping up lately, but may be passe real soon.

    Why a Heart... and Who A Heart... just sound dated.

    I vote Heartstopper.
