See it if really riveting and passionately told story. Absorbing and important

Don't see it if you don't care about solo acts

See it if Very funny and enjoyable. Great writing with lots of tangents that lead to the conclusion. Absorbing. This is more than just about abortion.

Don't see it if you're not up for one-person comedies.

See it if you wanna try a modern costume/setting Shakespeare.

Don't see it if Hamlet speaks so slowly that you can't help but wonder if her's trying to remember his lines. Weird direction on that. Overall lackluster

See it if beautifully done adaptation of the novel. Moving and compelling. Great acting and staging.

Don't see it if you don't care about long shows.

See it if great fun writing and acting. Great direction and change of scenes. Moves fast and pleasurably.

Don't see it if The last act (last 15 min) is a bit disjointed. And really doesn't match the rest. Like it was transplanted here from somewhere else.

See it if you enjoy old plays with absorbing conundrums. Well acted and staged.

Don't see it if 2hr with an intermission was unnecessary. Small cuts would make the play flow better and faster and 90 min without intermission.

See it if this was fun. Really good music, voices, story, storytelling. Great entertainment.

Don't see it if you want a full Broadway production. This is a concert.

See it if 100 minutes. Great acting and good story with a believable conclusion. Very enjoyable.

Don't see it if You don't like gay themes. Some of the dialogue could afford to be a little less pedantic and more real conversational.

See it if you want to see great performances of meandering text with banal direction. Kudos to all actors.

Don't see it if The writing is amateur even though there kinda is an interesting story buried in bad direction. Sets/Lighting are a disaster.

Also There is a canopy made for a garage shop over this production. Why? Looks nothing like what anyone would have in a home. Turntable was creaky and so slow that actors had to wait in place for it to finish its rotation. Do not sit in the first role if you don't want to be blinded to miss parts of the acting. Very poor blocking.... Read more Read less

See it if I REALLY wanted to like it. There is a good amount of creativity in the design.

Don't see it if It's messy and overly complicated. They threw everything in there, the kitchen sink and a boot arm. Confusing. 2hr without intermission.Why?

Also What to say when a play spends 12 minutes with uninterrupted ASL, French then Russian dialog without any caption? Utter boredom. So disappointing. The actors are not the problem. It's the production. It went overboard trying to be avant guarde becoming messy. Lots of unecessary scenes. So disappointing. PS. The seats are benches. Uncomfortable, no arm rest and people sat right against one another.... Read more Read less

See it if the book is great and even most of the lyrics. Picks up the best parts of the story.

Don't see it if Atonal most of the time is bland. Hamlet looks very old and acts half the time like a clown rather than a tormented youngster.

See it if Gorgeous production! Great acting and imagination. Lots of thought-provoking themes.

Don't see it if you prefer plays where the main character are not young and plays without magical elements

See it if Great actors in a retelling of actual interviews. Very well edited. Relevant.

Don't see it if It's a video.

See it if Very well performed and written. Interesting and entertaining.

Don't see it if you don't like simple mid-pandemic online zoom-style recordings. The story and acting easily put me past those considerations.

See it if it has many ambitious themes but murks everything up and accomplishes nothing. Less would have been more.

Don't see it if Pretentious at times. Messy and confusing with lots of longs uncomfortable "pauses". Poorly written and directed.

Also I wanted to like it as most everything I have ever seen at Soho Rep but this was baffling. They have handled weird/almost absurd plays before very successfully but this was not the case. Almost like an uneven ride between pedantic slowness and mindless mania.... Read more Read less

See it if great acting, writing. Lots of actors at the same time and timing was already top notch on 2nd preview. Funny and Interesting.

Don't see it if 2hr without an intermission. This is not so much a story arc as it is a situation where tidbits are released in day-to-day way.

See it if Great show with lots of important themes, well written with relatable characters and satisfying story lines.

Don't see it if you don't care for LGBT, family or end of life topics

See it if you don't care that plot is a mere suggestions.

Don't see it if Music is forgettable at best and never reflects what goes on in the plot

See it if great voices and interpretation. Great new reimagining of time/place. Modern invigorated sets. Kudos!

Don't see it if you don't like reimagined operas.

See it if a family opera, better than the other holiday offerings for the past 10 years. Accessible to all.

Don't see it if you expect the full version of the opera

See it if Very entertaining and fast paced drama. Lots of plot twists in just 80 min. Very well acted and written. Absorbing and entertaining.

Don't see it if You prefer comedies.

See it if Enjoyable, entertaining. Good talent. Silly fun with enjoyable melodies

Don't see it if Good show for off Broadway but it's not Broadway quality material.

See it if Really great take on the original. Inspired but not restricted by. Beautiful use of re-analyzing and growing from the original. Refreshing.

Don't see it if you can't get a ticket or you want your Shakespeare pristine.

See it if you enjoy a show with a True Crime feel. It doesn't feel like a true story. Solid writing and performances.

Don't see it if Some of the plot doesn't make a lot of sense in the end. Another plot makes sense but not for the reasons that it gives.

See it if Well done, interesting, thought provoking. Some intriguing ideas.

Don't see it if May be controversial to some. Even though the point is simply to play some devil's advocate.

See it if you like the leads. Performances are really great! So is Choreography/dancing. Classic revival with no great creativity other than dancing.

Don't see it if Overall the show is dated. Nome good songs but also some boring ones. Story is stale. Entertaining but forgettable.

Also Hard to excuse the vainglory and evil of the main character especially in 2022. No matter how miraculously and unexplainably he has a change of heart in the last 10% of the show. Same goes for the damsel's attitude.... Read more Read less

See it if Great acting. Great Concept. Important. Moving. Great Screenplay.

Don't see it if you don't like one person shows.

See it if you like someone to do an audio on a topic you would rather not read about online. Good sets.

Don't see it if Spoken in third person. No acting. No character interaction. Dry reciting of facts. Surfing online is more interesting.

See it if you like and know the music.

Don't see it if No entertaining gimmicks other than some choreography. No costume or set changes. Not for everyone.

See it if great performance by Moloney. Unevenly engaging.

Don't see it if writing is slow in stile and clarity. Hard to focus.

See it if You have been to Burning Man and are curious.

Don't see it if You have actually been to Burning Man and can see the travesty (not parody at all).

See it if Excellent. Funny, fun, heartfelt. Great music that propels story with catchy fun melodies. Great cast! Great staging. Great message.

Don't see it if you can't get a ticket to this sold out run.

See it if you like fun and clever comedy. Expertly acted with perfect timing. Great story arc with opportunities for all actors to shine. FUN!

Don't see it if comedies are not your thing.

See it if A brilliant cast to the classic. Beautiful voices. Delightful music. Great story. Fun!

Don't see it if you dislike minimal sets/production. Encores are "concerty" productions but really well done.

See it if Great writing and great cast. Great entertaining story with a powerful and refreshing message.

Don't see it if you don't like small plays

See it if Great story with a twist. Well written and performed.

Don't see it if you don't like audio

See it if Short absorbing story. Well executed

Don't see it if You don't like audio.

See it if Great cast mostly.

Don't see it if Almost 3 hour long of sang prose from a Wikipedia page. This happened then that happened, this person [name] said this (times 30).No emotion

Also No verses, no rhymes. Just sang through regular speech. No place for audience to invest any feeling on any character. Since we all know the final score, it is just a curiosity about how. Dry information, no feeling. Though Taub manages to create ways to sing verbatim Woodrow Wilson's speeches. A sang school report... Read more Read less

See it if Fun lighthearted story. Some great talent. Great staging. Cinderella and Stepmother are phenomenal. Some good music.

Don't see it if Some not-so-good lyrics. Plot doesn’t make sense within itself. Some actor is severely miscast in the role.

See it if Masterful performance. Riveting. Comer shows a vast range of acting. Flawless.

Don't see it if You can’t get a ticket.

See it if Old fashioned 2 person show. Some fun startles. Only matinee on a Tuesday.

Don't see it if At 1hr 50 min a 20 min intermission was uncalled for. Slow especially on start. Sometimes confusing.

See it if Cute and fun entertainment. Enjoyable. Good acting/singing.

Don't see it if Most of the melodie’s are forgettable. Some scenes are downers and 2hr40m it needs pruning.

See it if Fun musical of the musical. Great music and lyrics. Great talent/singing. Smart staging. FUN!! Clever.

Don't see it if At 2hr45m it could be shortened, though every song has its place.

See it if Great music with a fun interesting story. Very entertaining and energetic.

Don't see it if You prefer serious plays. Not all voices were great.
