Her Requiem

See it if you want to support the LCT3 mission of promoting new playwrights .

Don't see it if you want a coherent plot; this show squanders the considerable talents of the actors.

See it if Little gets resolved and even less gets evolved. It felt more like a long subject without much verb. It's entertaining enough, but uneven.

Don't see it if The point of theater for me is movement. Little changes on this play. It's like a painting Most characters are left as you found them.

See it if Entertaining enough, light laughs here and there but overall it's just ok. The actress who played Mirtis was quite funny & entertaining.

Don't see it if I don't see this show has having a wide appeal. It never fully takes off, at times is unfocused, & chemistry between actors not always great

See it if You're a fan of character drivin contemporary family drama... with a little bit of quirky thrown in.

Don't see it if You like fast paced light hearted fluff that you don't have to think very much about.

See it if if you are interested in alternative lifestyles. This is what happens when hippies grow up. Beautiful set is like a visit to the country.

Don't see it if you are looking for a lot of action. There is a lot of talk but not much is explained.

See it if You want a paint-by-numbers show where the situations are all mundane things we've seen 1,000 times before.

Don't see it if You want a fast-paced show. Although it's only 90 minutes, it feels twice as long.

See it if you want to see three fine performances from Mare Winningham, Peter Friedman, and especially, Keilly McQuail.

Don't see it if you do not like plays with a million subplots. This work also needs a few more rewrites before it should be produced on stage.

See it if you appreciate fine acting in an original, interesting drama about creativity and obsession in an unusual family situation. Nice set, too.

Don't see it if you are thrown by unexpected plot lines. It's more about the mid-life crisis of the father than the precocious teenage daughter composer.

See it if You like an orignal script. One parent totally supports his child's dream which ultimately puts a lot of pressure on the family dynamics.

Don't see it if You want to see a light entertaining story with all of the bells and whistles.

See it if you enjoy new original plays. The cast alone is worth the visit, play not so much. though.

See it if you like great acting and an absorbing story. Fun banter between husband and everyone else.

Don't see it if want an action packed play.

See it if A dirge for the dead, composed by a prodigy, will bring a dysfunctional family back to life and send you deeper into the mystery of creation

Don't see it if A plot-less meditation on family dynamics with near incoherent themes will have you snoring faster than the man sitting next to me.
