Riveting, Scathing, Epic, Long, Masterful

See it if you're a fan of contemporary playwrights & really strong writing; or if you like darkly funny, scathing portraits of dysfunctional families.

Don't see it if you want something light & fluffy, or if you don't like long shows (there are 2 intermissions here).

Absorbing, Clever, Entertaining, Great acting, Great writing

See it if Absorbing. The cast was terrific. The writing was wonderful. The time flew by.

Don't see it if It was quite long for a modern play, but I didn't notice or mind.

Absorbing, Ambitious, Great acting, Great staging, Must see

See it if I'm still reeling from this play I think. When it finished my jaw was on the floor the rest of the night. Incredible drama. See it. Just go.

Don't see it if Does deal with adult themes and intense family drama, not the most pleasant of topics. But it's incredible. The movie did not do it justice.

Ambitious, Great acting, Edgy, Intense

See it if you are looking for all the intensity live theater has to offer. Plates breaking, substance abuse, family trauma and drama...

Don't see it if you are looking to be uplifted.
