See it if The writing is complex, beautiful and thought provoking.
Don't see it if it has several staging ideas that seemed pretentious and really threw me off.

Don't see it if you are claustrophobic or do not like darkness. You do not want to hear dark or depressing texts.
See it if an important play with an interesting subject matter. Makes you want to research more about the Oslo Accords.
Don't see it if too much yelling and at times the tone felt like a somewhat superficial history class; still, it is an important work.
See it if ok.. took me a second viewing to understand the complexity and brilliance of this piece. Astounding!
Don't see it if If you like plays with a plot or expect some coherent narrative.
See it if if you liked Tiffany's "pretty to look"-yet more superficial-version of the show. This show finally approaches the text as a memory play.

Also I have heard comments that Gold took away the poetry of the piece away... Read more Read less

Don't see it if you prefer traditional plays. You do not like to interact with the show. Most of the show is in verse with a lot of pop culture references.
See it if you like William Finn's music. Andrew Rannells and Stephanie J Block are very good in their roles.
Don't see it if somewhat cartoonish (probably on purpose). I tend to like James Lapine's work but this one felt uneven.

See it if if you like Suzan-Lori Parks' poetic narrative style.
Don't see it if this did not work for me, despite all of the staging resources.
See it if you want to see a deeper interpretation of Pacific Overtures. Beautifully staged.

Don't see it if The Parisian charm of the film (which is a very important character) is no where to be found (music, book or direction).

Also Maybe it is just me but is there something really wrong about making a... Read more Read less
See it if this one was not for me; I had trouble understanding some the reasons behind the characters and felt manipulating in a way.
Don't see it if most audiences seemed to love it so it might be just personal taste. I love Paula Vogel's work but this one did not connect with me.
Also some of the staging was beautiful and breath-taking while other moment... Read more Read less
See it if you want to see a beautiful and moving production of "Sunday..." (the design of the chromolume is actually beautiful!)
Don't see it if you don't like Sondheim.
See it if you want to see the work of a genius. Lepage is a master of stage-craft and story telling. Very moving and beautiful.
Don't see it if If you prefer traditional plays with a linear plot you might hate this. If you are not patient.
See it if if you want to see Kevin Kline. The cast is fine, but Kristine Nielsen, as usual, is a standout.
Don't see it if Saw this in previews so hopefully they will improve the peace and tone of the piece, as it is very slow and needs more "punch".
Also Sound was terrible, but hopefully this will improve once previews are ... Read more Read less
See it if you want to see something different; some heavy themes but done in a playful way.
Don't see it if you prefer traditional plays; you don't like to go to the theater to be reminded of death.
Also while it is not totally successful, I always appreciate new and fresh ... Read more Read less
See it if You want to see masterful puppetry and have a few laughs.

See it if Agree with comments below. Sutton Foster is great in the role.

See it if you can get a ticket... brilliant on so many levels.
Don't see it if you prefer a traditional Shakespeare staging.
See it if you have not seen the movie... while not terrible, the movie is much better. Some nice directorial touches by Doyle.

Also This show should be a lesson for future playwrights. It had so much po... Read more Read less

See it if Correct: it is far from perfect but it achieves what it is looking for: to entertain. (very impressed with the Front of House/Usher team!)
