Fast-paced,, Absorbing, Entertaining

See it if you want to see just how good non-NYC theater can get. One reviewer said this is better than the Broadway version. I believe it.

Don't see it if you object to profanity. There's really no other reason not to see this production. Read more

Refreshing, Must see, Great staging, Great acting, Better than the broadway show

See it if you want to see Director Melissa Maxwell makes this a much better play than the one we saw on Broadway

Don't see it if you want to see the play that Nottage and Kate Whoriskey (Broadway dir.) thought Nottage had written. They might not recognize this. Read more
