See it if fun vibe; gets audience raucously involved; very clever ability to build on comedic references thru-out evening
Don't see it if fluff; rhyming & concepts rarely brilliant; has soft core of inoffensive sentimentality; would work better in more intimate setting Read more
See it if you want to see a show that takes its cues from words, stories or phrases from the audience. The cast creates a unique show on the spot.
Don't see it if you don't like rap even if it's used with a lot of humor and originality. There is language used so not for younger children. Read more

Don't see it if you prefer traditional theater. This is an improv show probably better suited to a music venue than Broadway.
See it if You like improvisation and audience participation, you enjoy rap music and freestyling.
Don't see it if You do not like rap music, do not care for improvisation and do not enjoy audience participation.
