Overall worthwhile, Sometimes tedious, Great acting, Thought-provoking, Ambitious

See it if You like original plays that make you think; if you have the necessary patience; if you like strange territory.

Don't see it if You are offended by simulated sex acts - but if so, please work at getting over it.
