Cliched, Dated, Funny, Raunchy, Slow

See it if If you love seeing a small cast, in a nicely-staged, blackbox theatre, with clichéd tropes andof course LGBT. It was okay. I missed a "free"

Don't see it if Performance and had to pay to reschedule. I didn't mind. I love seeing myself on stage.It had its moments, but, really needs some tightening

Awkward, Entertaining, Relevant

See it if Easily relatable and funny. Breakups happen all the time but how do you find yourself again when you’ve been with someone for so long?

Don't see it if Erratic humor, largely hit or miss and sort of feels a little forced on the acting part.

Disappointing / Overrated, Indulgent / Ambitious / Slow, Intimate Venue (Small Loft) / Good Set Sound & Lighting, Meh Humor / Tired Jokes, Very Cliched / Uneven Performances

See it if you're cool with yet ANOTHER gay break-up story, w/supportive friends, family, & an over-bearing Jewish mother (on voice-mail).

Don't see it if you're expecting some sort of miraculous (original) revelation into break-up scenarios, or at least some NEW good humor. Read more

Banal, Fluffy

See it if you enjoy off-broadway shows with some OK humor that are in an intimate setting.

Don't see it if you enjoy larger productions where the acting is more trained and less superficial.

Clever, Entertaining, Funny

See it if you find moderately clever banter centered around quirky characters and their relationship problems with gay/straight sibling themes.

Don't see it if won't appreciate the valiant efforts of a somewhat uneven cast in a workshop level production with clever but sit-com type dialogue.

"I just laughed my ass off at a performance of 'Adam Minus Josh,' a potent original comedy about gay dating by Dan Fingerman that's like evolved Neil Simon through a 'Mean Girls' prism...Reid's character is a bit too weird for me when first introduced, but there's more balance to him soon thereafter...The four actors have undeniable chemistry, keeping up with each other at a farcical speed, allowing Fingerman's breathlessly adroit use of language to shine."
