See it if You want to see a beautiful small play that deals with love straight and gay.
Don't see it if You are averse to gay elements in a drama. Actually perhaps you should see this, it might open your eyes. Like "Love Story" for today.
See it if You want to see a beautiful play about 2 couples going through similar things, seemingly at the same time, but sadly not.
Don't see it if You always need a happy ending. Read more
See it if you enjoy imaginative well performed theater. A mystery, a ghost story, a double romance, a lovely play excellently produced.
Don't see it if I cannot think of any reason not to see it.
See it if If you want to see a terrific little play about love and relationships. Well-acted and charming, it makes for a very pleasant evening.
Don't see it if You don't care for plays dealing with same-sex relationships or you are too cynical to enjoy plays that are sweet and heartwarming.
See it if you can appreciate a moving story of how a straight couple sees parallels in their life with a gay couple whose diaries they find.
Don't see it if you want high production values or stellar acting skills. The whole is definitely greater than the sum of its parts in this play.
See it if You want to be touched by a beautiful love story of how 2 men were so in love with each other.
Don't see it if A bit rough around the edges, but the show's heart is in the right place and it's such a touching story. 90 minutes including intermission.
See it if If you can be patient with this slow drama, the last 15 minutes rewards with a satisfying conclusion to much of the puzzling build-up.
Don't see it if This isn't a big, bold drama, but very nice quiet, personal story with some insightful observations about ordinary people.
See it if you want to see a nice story about a young couple exploring and getting absorbed in the lives of the previous owners through diaries.
Don't see it if you don't like stories that involve 2 couples that don't actually meet interacting on stage side by side.

"One of 'Sonder's' triumphs is that it delivers sentiment without getting stuck in sentimentality...All the characters, in fact, are endearing, thanks largely to the actors who inhabit them...The actors give these characters life, but the script gives them something more. Moldovan's play transcends realism by populating the same space with characters from different times...For all its merits, 'Sonder' isn't perfect, but its digressions into implausibility are outshined by what it gets right."
