Good acting, Well staged, Cliched, Great writing, Relevant

See it if You like drama touching on race relations both between races and within the latino community a great cast, & a good tightly paced production

Don't see it if Hate obvious endings or can't deal with plays that have some Spanish dialogue that isn't translated (it didn't bother me)

Intelligent, Steady, Modern

See it if female playwrights make you go WAHOO! and you're into seeing themes of authenticity in culture play out.

Don't see it if you need to root for the main character. Unfortunately, the actress playing Lucia is hard to get behind in her search for self.

Cliched, Disappointing, Funny, Relevant

See it if You don't mind a very familiar tale with a Mexican twist.

Don't see it if You aren't fond of stories done many times before but now with the characters being people of color.

Banal, Cliched, Relevant, Slow, Disappointing

See it if You like contemporary plays. It's a relevant premise and the first 30 minutes were promising.

Don't see it if You like unexpected plots or strong acting. The show drags and unfortunately the acting isn't strong enough to move the show along.
