Entertaining, Great music, Fluffy

See it if You enjoy inventive uses of technology in shows - musical looping/recording and green screens with live video are used frequently.

Don't see it if A fluffy, ho-hum plot will bother you. It's a sweet little story, but the "wow" factor is definitely the technology. Read more

Quirky, Ambitious, Slow, Good singing

See it if You are interested in Shackleton, like sea chanteys, a very good performance & voice by Wade McCollum & interesting projections.

Don't see it if You you don't like a slow pace, a quirky premise & forgettable score. Some parts work better than others.

Slow, Quirky, Cute, Juvenile, Tech heavy

See it if Fun for a while, both leads are talented and charming. Fantasy interaction with the explorer Ernest Shackleton,

Don't see it if Story is soft and fluffy, great for a 15-20 minute vignette. Music is repetitious and becomes boring. Third play to demonstrate looping.

Clever, Great singing, Intelligent, Ambitious, Disappointing

See it if Two terrific performers. Engaging, hummable music. Very cleverly staged. Original.

Don't see it if I wasn't that interested in the story, which involves a Brooklyn mom and an Antarctic explorer. Too heavy on the exploration for me.
