See it if a play that is a series of 2 character scenes about 4 people unfulfilled in work and relationships; interesting staging with minimalist set
Don't see it if some funny lines but full of characters that are depressing; some of the scenes & story lines are developed but not all - some are cliched Read more
See it if People struggling to survive in middle America make this a real drama for our age. It has,a modern day Grapes of Wrath feeling.
Don't see it if Not a feel good play and if your down yourself this will not help matters.
See it if You love Deirdre O'Connell (as I do)
Don't see it if You need a need a fully-realized play and thoughtful, good performances just won't do it for you
See it if you want to see a play dealing with modern life and the disappointments of work issues.
Don't see it if you wanted to see a feel good play.
See it if Want to look at disparate lives trying to get by. 4 people in same town circle around each other (sometimes literally) but fail to connect.
Don't see it if Want more than an empty set, actors often on opposite ends of platform. Neither good nor bad, but wondered what was the point throughout. Read more
See it if you enjoy unusual plot; total lack of scenery/props; bare-bones production with interesting characters interacting in different ways.
Don't see it if you want a full-blown production with complicated plots/subplots, costumes, scenery
See it if you'll be content just watching glimpses of everyday people in everyday lives.
Don't see it if you want plays to have strong message. It was thoroughly enjoyable but I have no idea what the playwright wanted to do with it.
See it if you want to witness four characters share aspects of their lives that show them as vulnerable and unfulfilled.
Don't see it if you are offended by cursing; prefer something with more plot development rather than slices of life revealed; looking for something upbeat. Read more

"Koogler has the playwright’s great gift of writing character into every line. Even if these performances were not as flawless as they are, you would know these four very different people from the words on the page...This is a production that would benefit from a smaller, or perhaps shorter, space. Despite the neck ache, it’s gripping drama, and Aukin creates a tension and sense of desperation that keeps you riveted."

"At its best, 'Fulfillment Center' moves almost imperceptibly between realism and a poetic alternate reality...For me, 'Fulfillment Center' was most satisfying as a vehicle for its actors, all of whom were ideally cast and excellent...There’s some lovely moment-to-moment communication, funny and heartbreaking. Yet, in the end, I found 'Fulfillment Center,' well, not entirely fulfilling."
