See it if Intelligently-written piece evokes late 80s. Director Mayer brings out comedy aspects of play, but defuses its underlying power/intensity.
Don't see it if Limited heat or passion - relying instead on scene-chewing dramatics instead of real connection among characters. Witty dialogue entertains.
See it if you want to see Adam Driver dominating the stage. Keri Russell could not keep up with his acting.
Don't see it if you want to see a better play or a musical.
See it if you want to see Adam Driver smolder as a lumbering, damaged brute, teetering between menace & seduction in a tepid Lanford Wilson revival.
Don't see it if you expect any sparks between Driver & Russell; you're tired of the flaming "gay best friend" stereotype to provide comic relief. Read more
See it if for Adam Driver's explosive performance, if you like to see a character-driven play about an unusual romance, & funny supporting characters.
Don't see it if uneven & muddled plays aren't your thing, the main characters are definitely complex but the rest are pure stereotypical cliches, not a must
See it if Well acted drama and intense emotions.
Don't see it if You don’t want to see an intense relationship drama.
See it if You want to see Adam Driver's excellent, thrilling performance of someone abusing substances. You like F'ed up romances.
Don't see it if There's not a load going on beyond the good performances. The story is sort of a domestic drama intermingled with badboy attraction. Read more
See it if You are interested in the principles. or Wilson.
Don't see it if You dont want to hear Driver, mostly yelling, in an odd voice. You dont want to have to wait for Russell to speak her lines. Read more
See it if you love Adam Driver or Brandon Uranowitz. They are wonderful and elevate the show immensely.
Don't see it if you're expecting a brilliant performance from Keri Russell.
