Dated

See it if This play would be relatable if you are a lesbian that grew up in the Catholic Church. The feeling of guilt and hiding is real in the produc

Funny, Great writing, Masterful, Resonant, Absorbing

See it if It is a compelling, relevant drama injected with humor around a sore and palpable topic.

Don't see it if It holds a mirror to the religious framework that restricts one from connecting, accepting and cohabiting with an other.

Great acting, Great writing, Intelligent, Resonant, Enlightening

See it if you are open to nuanced, non-stereotypical look at conflict/compromise of adult professional goals, tradition/faith, and alternative love.

Don't see it if you are disgusted by lesbian relationships and themes, black actors, tatoos, or Catholics, confused by non-linear scenes, can’t sit 90 mins.
