See it if you read it in school, are a student of theatre history, like small intimate dramas, like shows relevant to current times.
Don't see it if You are looking for a large scale show, want something uplifting, are bothered by anachronistic language. Acting is a little too improv-like
See it if you enjoy political dramas,revivals and period pieces.The acting was good, but the doctor overacts in some parts.
Don't see it if you expect to see Ibsen's Enemy of the People. The adaptation is interesting, but it changes the play almost past recognition.
See it if you want to see one of the classics and feel cultured, plus be wowed by how our contemporary issues are reflected in Ibsen's drama.
Don't see it if you're looking for something flashier or star-studded, or if you can't stand to sit in a REALLY cold theatre.
See it if you enjoy smart adaptations and shows with politically resonant overtones. Great use of the Barrow's space.
Don't see it if the idea of changing the work of the father of modern drama makes you feel faint.
