Slow, Insipid, Great acting, Funny, Clever

See it if you enjoy British humor (crude jokes and innuendos), naturalism, and solid acting. The play's strengths are its characters and specificity.

Don't see it if you expect an active plot, strong thematic structure, or diversity.

Confusing, Great staging, Raunchy, Slow, Original

See it if You understand the humor of the lower British side. A lot of jokes and good humor.

Don't see it if You're sort of a diction snob. I couldn't understand a word any of them were saying, so I didn't know the plot line.

Absorbing, Entertaining, Great acting, Refreshing, Intense

See it if You ever had a mind numbing job and the best part of the job were the coffee/tea and lunch breaks

Don't see it if you plan on taking kids. A lot of swearing & not 'slap stick' humor like One Man Two Guvnors

Thought-provoking, Great staging, Delightful, Entertaining

See it if It a humourous and fun show that has a deeper meaning that is very subtly in the way it is woven into the story. Some excellent characters

Don't see it if You are offended by bad language and find British accents and slang difficult

Absorbing, Great acting, Entertaining

See it if You enjoy highly calibrated ensemble acting. You yearn for theater that transports you to an unimaginable place and keeps your interest.

Don't see it if Your ears cannot understand a story told in British slang.
