See it if you're in the mood for a smaller show with a super talented, versatile casts. You like plays about history.

Don't see it if you dislike when actors play multiple roles and women play men, etc. In this case, they did a great job. Read more

See it if for snappy ensemble playing many roles. Creative history tale. Actors sing, play instruments. Cheeky script w/some lame jokes. Spirited!

Don't see it if you want fully polished work. No set, costumes, few props. Accents. Fascinating story, well told. Some 4th wall breaks.

See it if you enjoy British humor, you like history, you think about grappling with heavy decisions, you enjoy talented actors giving it their all

Don't see it if some of the humor didn't quite translate to an American audience, you like straight plays (there are some musical interludes)
