Intelligent, Romantic, Delightful, Slow, Ambitious

See it if You enjoy theatre that explores a concerning disease and the lives of those living with it and around it. Also if you enjoy great puppets.

Don't see it if You're not wanting to spend time with these characters and try to understand what they're going through, because it can get slow at times.

Absorbing, Funny, Great writing, Profound, Great acting

See it if you like something cute. Sometimes cliche out of a teenage movie, yet the sad fact still hangs above you, it absorbing you into the play.

Don't see it if cute, cliche, parent quarrel, and real life struggles are a no-go.

BOAST: Best of Astoria
November 6th, 2017

“A show that positively sparkles with life while dealing with some heavy topics... Special appreciation should be given to Claire DeLiso’s set design, which is literally multi-layered and dynamic, like the story...Monet Hurst-Mendoza’s script should be applauded for its loving portrayal of a Muslim family, not as foreign or fetishized, but as an ordinary American family living in extraordinary circumstances.”
