Long, Great acting, Slow, Relevant, Interesting

See it if You are interested in learning more about this aspect of history. Interesting and well acted and insightful.

Don't see it if You don't like plays that require your careful attention. While the content was interesting, at almost 3 hours long, it felt long at times.

Ambitious, Disappointing, Intelligent

See it if you want to tell your friends, when it wins Tony awards, that you saw it.

Don't see it if you don't get a decent seat in the center section. Otherwise, you're probably going to miss a bunch of the dialogue. Read more

Ambitious, Absorbing, Relevant, Thought-provoking, Great subject, but not great theater!

See it if If you're interested in the politics of the Middle East, Israel, good acting and a very interesting play

Don't see it if If you're expecting a great theatrical experience. In spite of a lot of movement, the play is strangely static.

Ambitious, Confusing, Frustrating, Shouty, Long

See it if You want a three-hour drama of people shouting at each other about the Middle East. It's exactly what it claims to be, decide if it appeals

Don't see it if You're liable to get offended by viewpoints about the Middle East, don't enjoy people shouting, or want a play with a satisfying ending.
