Masterful, Clever, Riveting, Great acting, Great writing

See it if you'd enjoy a great story with an excellent cast on an good small stage, used very well. It deserves a fuller production-kudos Drilling Co.

Don't see it if you are impatient as it is a great story unrushed. It is on the long side if you can't sit for 2 1/2 hours, including a 10 min interrmission

Uneven, Great acting

See it if into a female New Yorker shaking up a small Irish town. Great acting, and playful references to what we expect from Irish plays.

Don't see it if well... Heavy accents and familiar tropes of Irish misery drag Act 1 down. It gets livelier towards Act 2 with doses of humor and drama. Read more

Long, Strong acting, Subpar script, Confusing, Unfocused

See it if you like Irish plays abt life's misery. When joy looms, it's crushed. Strg perfs of the weak material. Heavy accents. Sm space well used.

Don't see it if you want a coherent plot. Lots of messy, silly threads (including last min mystery). 2.5 hrs. Script needs lots of work!
