See it if Amazing and sophisticated pantomime about the lonelily life of a looner. There is humor and there is tragedy,also parody of our daily lives

Don't see it if You don’t like mimes. This is a 60-minute mime comedy.

Also The small theatre was very warm during the performance I attended and the actor was sweating profusely throughout which was very distracting. I’ve been to this theatre and don’t remember it having been this warm. Maybe it was a bad A/C day.... Read more Read less

See it if You love modern Charlie chaplin acts. Great coordination with the sound effects. G Could reduce the show time, I got bored for a few minute

Don't see it if Just watch it. Great acting!! This is something new. Highly recommended.

See it if You enjoy the story without words... It's really refreshing to see how much can be expressed in depth without actual dialogues

Don't see it if You only aim for intense drama.

Also Great sound effects!!!

See it if to sample a highly inventive, unusual hour of farce about human obsession w/ devices—Saudek mesmerizes, ditto his fab sound-effects partner!

Don't see it if Do! Yes, it's a mime but also a pax de deux & brimming w/ side-splitting sound effects, some by Saudek; note intimate venue, interactive bit

See it if BlueMan Group meets Chaplin in the age of cyber-anxiety works for you. Saudek is agile, expressive & funny. Props to the sound lady.

Don't see it if A 1-hander w/no dialogue bores you. But it's really an hour-long romp through the foibles & pathos of humans vs the screens that consume us.

See it if You like a strong, energetic mime with remarkable facial expression and fine-tuned body language. Richard Saudek does an expert job.

Don't see it if You don't like mime (hard to imagine) are not amused that folks nowadays always stick their noses in their phones, or dislike sad sacks.

Also Having seen Mark Gindick's outstanding Wing-Man in 2013 (now THAT show was a 100), the Beep Boop story line was too sad and tired for me, not as funny as it might have been otherwise. Still, this is an energetic performance, worth seeing.... Read more Read less

See it if you loved Macbeth Muet or Marcel/The Art of Laughter; you treasure sterling talent that gets unleashed in small theaters

Don't see it if you dislike delightful things or small scale; are craving a meatier show

Also A joy to watch this confection of a show. Saudek nails it in conception & execution. I’m not always a fan of broad comedy, but I am a fan of exquisitely observant comedy. And there’s something so satisfyingly elemental & salt of the earth about using only movement, light, & sound without speech. This seems like an oddly high score for a light, tongue in cheek show, but I get so excited when I discover people who are this good at such specialized performance.

If you associate mime w/ being stalked around Paris by costumed strangers for laughs, I suggest you give BB a try & get to know what you’re missing. This is one of my favorite things I’ve seen at HERE. It’s mimicry & exaggeration made thoughtful, fun, & imaginative.

There are *ahem* many first-time reviewers ☹ I’m not one, nor a friend of the cast. The show just really is excellent & deserves more attention. Subject is fully relatable to anyone w/ a mobile. Not an obvious pick, but more people will enjoy this than they realize.... Read more Read less
