Poignant, Great writing, Excruciating, Intense, Great acting

See it if part of what you love abt theatre is powerful depiction of strong human emotions when in challenging but v real circumstances; well acted

Don't see it if you dislike v deep & heart wrenching, you're a new mom/pregnant could be too close to home, or if want more action, happy ending, fluffy Read more

Great writing, Great staging, Great acting

See it if Rachel McAdams is making her Broadway debut. Great job. Great plot about a mother of a special needs child and what they entails.

Don't see it if If the subject of a special needs child upsets you to much to watch a play about that subject.

Great writing and acting, Intelligent, Human, Thought-provoking, Heartbreaking

See it if you want a well written play about simple, human emotions while watching a parent deal with a health issued child. Bring tissues.

Don't see it if you don't want to see a play with little "action" or can be sensitive to dealing with major health issues (in a loving way).

Hard to watch at times, but rewarding

See it if you’re up for a serious play leavened with an occasion spark of humor. You appreciate good acting.

Don't see it if watching a grievously sick child would be too much for you.

Ambitious, Absorbing

See it if 喜欢Rachel,对单亲妈妈的生活感同身受,医院的有一场冲突爆发非常有感染力,演的非常好

Don't see it if 不喜欢Rachel,她其实是整个剧唯一亮点,剧本和台词其实有点太细碎,有些笑点有点尴尬
