See it if Judith Light is amazing.

Don't see it if Sometimes Labute's characters seem like tired, whiny, young micepeople that fantastic actors bring to life out of necessity.

See it if You're in the mood for an intimate immersive piece that relies on dance to move you forward and little is explained.

Don't see it if Immersive theater isn't your thing.

See it if One heck of a spectacle. It uses texture completely to its advantage and delivers in the ways you hope. The animals are stunning.

Don't see it if You're not in the mood for a Broadway blockbuster.

See it if Solid insight into the life and struggles of a truly great American songwriter.

Don't see it if You're not a fan of Carol King.

Don't see it if At times the show does rely quite a bit on texture.

See it if You're able to get tickets.

Don't see it if You have to take out a second mortgage on your house.

See it if For one actor to play this many roles, all with distinction and intensity, is worth seeing for its own sake.

Don't see it if It has a cartoon-ish quality that's sometimes funny, often entertaining, but sometimes this element removes you from the piece.

See it if A fun, unpretentious look into cutting edge social issues. It's informative but not at all preachy.

Don't see it if You're looking for something heavy.

See it if It's an epic classic. The scope is incredible. Just great theater.

Don't see it if A bit over the top.

See it if You want to see the cutting edge of immersive theater.

Don't see it if It's a bit like a haunted house.

Don't see it if Heavy on the religious aspect.

See it if You'd like an easy story that doesn't challenge you.

Don't see it if You'd rather invest in a show that intends to stay with you. This show stays in the theater.

See it if You want to see tons of blood.

Don't see it if This show seems a bit confused. It is supposed to be scary? I wasn't.

See it if Kids who are fans of the movie will probably enjoy themselves.

Don't see it if You're an adult who loved the book when you were young. Just read the book again.

Don't see it if You'd rather not question your moral foundation.

See it if This is a strong new voice in American theater. The book aspect is what drew me in, but the show is great. Dark and engaging the whole way.

Don't see it if Dark humor that borders on horror turns you off.

See it if You're a fan of theater and you have the means. Not an easy ticket, but well worth the hoops you'll have to jump through. A landmark show.

Don't see it if Getting the ticket is too demanding. And by that I mean you have to walk through fire.
