The Dingdong

See it if You like classic farce. Really top notch.

Don't see it if You do not want to laugh

See it if you want a frothy night of fun. 1st act drags (cut some!), but overall show sparkles. Great set, nice costumes, strong acting, clever script

Don't see it if you hate farce, altho I'm not a fan and I had a great time. One actor (Lucy) is weak. Running time was about two hours with intermission.

See it if you like farce, actors playing multiple parts, fun coincidences, a few inside jokes about the Pearl's repertory run, split-second timing

Don't see it if you don't like farce, hate contrived situations, hate physical humor, can't appreciate base humor or actors going slightly over the top,

See it if Slamming-door farce delights you. An exceptionally well performed frothy French sex farce is on tap as marital infidelity is tested ! See it

Don't see it if You are looking for a serious look at sexual and marital relationships. You don't like suggestive language or sex themed jokes.

See it if you want to laugh out loud and enjoy Farce...a form of comedy rarely seen in NYC.

Don't see it if you are looking for serious comedy.

See it if A fun, broadly acted farce about love and lust. Full of exaggerated physical comedy, slamming doors, silliness - actors play multiple roles.

Don't see it if You need depth or meaning in your plays - this is pure frivolity and fun. Actors really go over the top. Reminded me of Noises Off.

See it if Farce appeals, in a not brilliant but very well performed & funny modern update with a memorable, must-see performance by Kelly Curran.

Don't see it if Door-slamming & the silliness of farce or an updated translation & set offend in spite of good performances by a game cast with one standout

See it if You love actors playing multiple characters in a convoluted storyline. One actress does a great job with her roles.

Don't see it if You are hoping for laugh out loud dialogue and tons of fun

See it if you enjoyed the second and third acts of "Noises Off!", here without the play-within-a-play/backstage premise but rather a marriage comedy.

Don't see it if madcap hijinks, innuendo & double entendre, over-the-top acting, and multiple quick character changes are not your thing. Light as meringue!
