Excruciating, Dizzying, Disappointing, Cliched, Banal

See it if A poorly written play with even worse direction. Community theater would do better.

Don't see it if If you want a good storyline. 90 minutes of torture.

Edgy, Intense, Slow, Thought-provoking, Relevant

See it if you want to witness unacceptable behaviors that are cruel that are portrayed convincingly by a young cast on a small stage.

Don't see it if you're triggered by violent behavior & death. You're left to wonder why this foolishness continues-no insight is provided in this production

Long, Pedestrian, Credible

See it if you might like to see repeated, convincing enactments of some well-known hazing behavior: Chugging, snorting, paddling, mental degradation

Don't see it if you’re expecting fresh insight into why young men feel so strong a need to belong to a group that they’ll facilitate their own debasement Read more

Resonant, Relevant, Riveting, Great acting, Absorbing

See it if College machoism & brutality in the fraternity culture is on display in this haunting & provocative play & rings true. Great acting.

Don't see it if If violence & college stupidity is hard to watch then skip this one!

Unconvincing, Violent, Cliched

See it if interested in seeing an enthusiastic young cast who you've probably not seen before.

Don't see it if you don't like violence, cruelty, hackneyed material. This subject matter has been portrayed before, much more convincingly.

Ambitious, Disappointing, Over specific, Resonant, Great acting

See it if you want to see an expose of hazing and the culture that embraces it in the name of "brotherhood"

Don't see it if you want a show that fully develops and commits to it's POV Read more
