Absorbing, Cliched, Edgy, Great acting, Intelligent

See it if Examines conflict in a half way house. Marin Ireland and Peter Mark Kendall give excellent performances.

Don't see it if Don't care for rehab and fractured people. Bible verses and 12 step lingo. Southern drawls and melt downs.

Thought-provoking

See it if Interesting look at selfishness, forgiveness, rehab, power with fine performances particularly Ireland.

Don't see it if Scenes often have what seems like all talking at once. Dialect often tough to pick up. Big reveal was so what due to the way it was revealed

Slow, Disappointing, Very real characters, Uneven plot development, Predictable

See it if You don’t mind sitting through two hours of play to get to the interesting climax that you saw coming twenty minutes into the play.

Don't see it if You can’t amuse yourself with things like set and lighting design or don’t mind Lind meandering plot lines.

Disappointing, Great acting, Overrated, Slow

See it if you want to see a fine ensemble overcome a third-rate play. There is not one weak link in the cast; just wish they had a better play.

Don't see it if you expect better than a third-rate play.

Meaningless, poorly written, overrated

See it if you are patient with very fine actors in mediocre productions poorly directed and incoherently written

Don't see it if you expect insight, character development, comprehensively spoken and paced performance (not the actors fault)

Depiction of the charcters in this dishonest play approaches uncomfortable condescension ...

See it if you want to see some good acting-but not from Marin Ireland.I found her performance irritating, fussy, mannered, full of fury but empty.

Don't see it if you value your time & know that there is so much better theatre out there to experience.
