See it if Great show
Don't see it if Great show
See it if You can appreciate a slice of history that surprises and intrigues. Jimmy Smits fans were delighted—I was.
Don't see it if You prefer high drama. Some Broadway drama is loud, histrionic. This is the opposite.
See it if Cruz's languid romance captures both period of change & universality of longing w/ lush dialogue Well staged in Gallery's plain speak style
Don't see it if Despite Miami setting, pacing a litlle slow via actors Uneven performances but Smith's matriarch & Santos' lector carry drama to tragic end
See it if you like intimate shows that explore modernization vs. tradition, familial and romantic tension, and cross-cultural literary influences.
Don't see it if you prefer flashy shows with production budgets, set changes, and seating that doesn't feel like a school gym. Also, the acting was uneven.
See it if you have never seen the musical and enjoy character driven stories
Don't see it if you don't want to travel to Park Slope
See it if An interesting, poetic yet realistic drama sounds right for you. Some strong acting. Cheers to Abbi Hawk! A Pulitzer Prize winning play.
Don't see it if Some actors are uneven in tone, at times, a bit too in your face. You're looking for something light. Read more
See it if you like heavy-hitting dramas with diverse characters, or dramas that mirror literature and use it to tell the story. The acting is great.
Don't see it if you don't like drama, or need a really tight script. The directing is pretty loose in this, so it feels slow at times.
See it if Partner's 83%. My 78%. Very good acting esp. Abbi Hawk & Fabrico Santos. Great space to see theater. Gallery work on dramas moving up
Don't see it if Think.. our previous viewing at Princeton jaded us for this production It included the later Broadway cast Jimmy Smits and Daphne Rubin Vega
