See it if You like dysfunctional families, and are interested in the lives of performers.
Don't see it if You want something on an epic scale - this is just an intimate story about a family.
See it if like Blythe Danner's original, actors, theater references, & family drama about jealousy, death, parental love, envy, fame, & acceptance

See it if You like seeing a great ensemble do great writing
Don't see it if You don't like small venues in basements
