See it if Good theatre that raises some thought-provoking ideas. Actors were great.
Don't see it if There's no special bells and whistles...just great theatre
See it if You like serious stories with a feel good faith thread both in religion and ultimately humanity
Don't see it if A 19 yr old playing a 6 th grader is distracting and religion and the hardships of life are not something you want to deal with
See it if Touching modern drama about 2 12-yr. old students connecting, themes of child abuse and class, adult-youth relationships, feeling ignored;
Don't see it if you don't like young adult actors playing 12-yr olds, abrupt scene blackouts, a bit simplistic in story, unclear relationships at first
See it if you want a feel good story. About Blacks but not racially oriented. Jay Mazyck is only 19, plays the lead, is excellent! Set is marvelous.
Don't see it if you dislike contrived plots which this is. But the acting and sets make up for this.
See it if You want to see a hearfelt dialogues,great acting,great story line,a unique relation development between an orphan kid & school lunch server
Don't see it if Religious scenes with bible referrrals, domestic violence, foul language bothers you. Short scenes wt lots of movement on stage.
See it if You want to see a touching piece about a young boy finding solace in religion and friends around him
Don't see it if you don't like a quick secession of scenes. It jumps around a lot.
See it if You like to see fanciful kindness acted out on stage; cast is great, the youngest being only 19; 90 minutes with 10 min intermission
Don't see it if You don’t like short scenes that are not fully developed; you don’t like “feel-good” kind of play; high-rising staging, avoid 1/2 row!
See it if you like happy or inspiring plots and like smaller but well presented shows, if you enjoy stories about young people who feel different.
Don't see it if if you are sensitive to child mistreatment stories or you feel that for plots to be realistic they must be somewhat somber.
