Disappointing, Excruciating

See it if You get a free ticket and have nothing better to do, even then you might prefer to stay home and just read the play.

Don't see it if You were expecting a creative take on a classic, enjoy good acting, don't want to be bored to death.

Absorbing, Great acting, Intense

See it if You like theatre with purpose. This is an incredibly well-acted production that gets straight to the heart of Sophocles' argument.

Don't see it if You don't appreciate classical arguments or looking for a simple, fun night. This is a serious piece of work.
