Meaningful Conversation

See it if You’re in the mood to basically sit in on a series of conversations that will make you look at a variety of subjects from a new way.

Don't see it if You’re looking for lots of action or a detailed plot line. This is interesting but really pretty cerebral.

See it if Blackout. Two neighbours drop defenses because of the darkness; share intimacies. Good set for off-off.

Don't see it if Weak resolve. At 2:15, the set-up takes too long for such a hasty pay-off. First act takes place on floor. General admission seating.

Don't see it if you're looking for a show with a great plot and very believable situations

Also The 1st act, taking place during a NY blackout years ago, moved along, and kept me interested. I was expecting a much better 2nd act (taking place 2 years later) and lot more from the show, but it kind of faded away. It never really explained the situations well enough. It got kind of stupid and the ending just fell flat. Things didn't add up well enough. And at 2 hours, it was a bit too long.... Read more Read less

Also I thought the author had a lot of potential. The dialogue flowed. The actors were amazing. But the play didn't go anywhere for me.... Read more Read less

See it if The set-up is very good and solid but the performances are uneven while the dialogue feels a touch forced at times, even a bit predictable.

Don't see it if you like plays that have actual plot and action and character development.

Also The actors and director do what they can. They stage design is the highlight. The fault is in the writing. No plot. Having realistic dialogue doesn't equate to meaningful. Skip!... Read more Read less

See it if Nice acting by Milford, Geraghty & Leal. The two lesser roles provided a nice start . A N.Y. story that could be reality. Nice set.
