Round Table

See it if you'd like a rom-com w a twist of medieval LARPing. Well-drawn chars. Bro Kay esp'ly likable. Lively, but long for plot. Gd use of sm stage.

Don't see it if you dislike monologues break 4th wall. Or bored by silly,rep'tive medieval scenes. Or want to learn (basic relnship stuff). Gd set. Clever.

See it if you want to follow three different stories. Poor direction and some poor performances do not help this production.

Don't see it if you want a more coherent play. This play is still at the workshop stage.

See it if You want to watch a talented cast of actors deal with occasionally good scenes in the midst of a muddled, dull play.

Don't see it if You don't want to see a play that is slow, and confusing. There is potential to the story but it needs some heavy re-writes.

See it if you can empathize with people who can find meaning in taking themselves seriously in a fantasy world; you like rom-coms.

Don't see it if you'll write off roleplaying as "too weird for you" you're bothered by cringe-y romcom humor, or very occasional swearing.

See it if You enjoy rom coms, into nerd culture & wanna see a clever show that comments it, looking for a feel good play with funny characters

Don't see it if Looking for something profound or revolutionary, not interested in a male centric play, not interested in dating scene or nerd culture

See it if You enjoy geekdom & fandom, a story about a character that navigates life through their passions. Cast of characters are funny and endearing

Don't see it if are looking for something lighthearted. There’s a melancholy to the show.

Also For a show about LARPing, which is a very particular passion people can have, I didn’t particularly enjoy the lead character’s distain for romance novels. It would have been a more interesting for her to actually enjoy her job and to have a passion for something too.... Read more Read less

See it if you think my review at http://theaterlife.com/round-table/ may be wrong.

Don't see it if you think I may be onto something with my review at http://theaterlife.com/round-table/

See it if you care about and understand LARPs, you want charismatic actors who chew scenery, you like romantic sitcom plots

Don't see it if you find romcoms cliche, or don't like actors doing spotlight monologues at the audience, or want more politically charged material

See it if you have an imagination. You don't just want to see the usual stuff.

Don't see it if you have a prescriptive attitude towards art or like seeing plays around a couch.

See it if Want to see a relationship based play between brothers and also between a man and a woman

Don't see it if You are expecting this to be about LARP

Also My new rule is to see everything that 59E59 does. A month ago I would have passed on this show. I’m glad I went if I didn’t I would be wondering what this was all about. I was however disappointed because of how amazing the recent shows have been at this theater. I liked the casting, I thought the actors were very believable in their roles. Problem I had was I just didn’t really like the story. I feel like they just tried to force this weird hobby of LARP that the male lead had. But it wasn’t really about that it was more about relationships. And when you get to the core of this there wasn’t anything new or interesting... Read more Read less

See it if want to show support to actors,expected comedy ( it is not, even when advertising say so), like everything that 59E59 theater does

Don't see it if Mix but no match: King Arthur, modern day writer and medieval time consultant, glioblastoma and magic sword, too long and strange ending

Also Zach's brother is very good, funny and caring, only one normal character... Read more Read less

See it if you enjoy a story you can just lean back and enjoy without thinking too much. feel it is best for those ages in 20s and 30s

Don't see it if you are easily confused or dislike continual transition between reality and fantasy.

See it if if you enjoy fun, quirky premises, you want to release your inner geek, you're a Game of Throne fan

Don't see it if you have no sense of imagination

Also Great acting and staging! Actors had to switch between 2-3 different versions of themselves throughout the show, which was done extremely well by everyone. The actors also do a fantastic job of moving between more comic moments and more sombre ones and transitioning to new scenes and settings.
While the description makes the show sound quite light, the plot does address some slightly darker aspects of life. The show is oveall quite funny and well-balanced; pacing is similarly also very good.... Read more Read less
