See it if Excellent acting in this one-man show. He makes eye contact with many audience members & is very energetic.
Don't see it if Show drags in many spots (1hr35min) & could use a good 20min trim. A bit too much rambling when the same point could have been made quicker.
See it if You want to get the warm fuzzies from Javier Muñoz.
Don't see it if You want something fresh. This was quite predictable (with one or two clever moments), not artistically or thematically challenging.
See it if You didn't see Hamilton and you really, really want to see someone who was in the second Broadway cast.
Don't see it if You aren't a fan of indulgent shows that have already been done a billion times before. Or one-man shows. Or shows about time.
See it if you enjoy long shows exploring one human's condition or are a fan of Munoz
Don't see it if you need a clear plotline and story
See it if U enjoy great acting in a nonlinear solo play that is funny, quirky, philosophical and thought provoking.
Don't see it if U don’t like solo performances, nonlinear plays or prefer musicals
See it if You enjoy intelligent writing that has you thinking. I loved it. Saw it with understudy— he was very good! Intelligent all around.
Don't see it if You do not like to think or if you do not like solo performances.
See it if Life. Death. Slow. Stop. How do u deal with the death n the loss of a young child? If one can write, he put it in a play. Kudos to J Munoz.
Don't see it if If dealing with death and a lost soul is too much a subject. If watching a well-acted one-man Show for 90 minutes is too much a commitment.
See it if you are a fan of Muñoz and enjoy very intimate, single performer experiences. There are somber moments and a confusing jump in space & time.
Don't see it if a monologue about working through grief and loss might be upsetting or if you don't enjoy someone essentially speaking at you for 80 minutes

"We never get a clear picture of the family's unraveling -- their apparently idyllic past remains largely a blank -- because Helper is too busy spinning out big-picture musings to focus on the tragedy at the play's heart… From so much straining for significance, you can get exhausted."

"This metaphysical monologue of a play is most fortunate in having the skillful and charming Javier Muñoz on deck as solo performer."

Score: 79%. ""How daunting life can be," but with Javier Muñoz as my guide, it can't be a bad trip."

"It's a script that could charitably be called overambitious; less charitably, pretentious. In stuffing in so many digressions and name-drops, the monologue loses focus…Muñoz is an asset to this production. He has an affable presence, and his heart is clearly in the role."
