Midnight Lunch Productions presents Edla Cusick's new drama about sobriety and cross-generational romance. Starring longtime character actor Thomas G. Waites. More…
Austin, fresh out of his seventh stint in rehab, is desperate to reunite with his wife and teenage daughter. But, inconveniently, he falls in love with his sobriety counselor: a young male gardener 30 years his junior.
See it if you enjoy Tom Waites. Otherwise, stay away. FAR away. Horrendous script, feebly supported by even worse acting & staging. Confusing ending.
Don't see it if you enjoy Tom Waites. SO wanted to see him live; SO disappointed. And his daughter is in the show, too. A new career should be considered.
See it if You enjoy dysfunctional family dramas
Don't see it if you like well acted, intense drama
See it if You like confusing theatre, over-acting (although I liked the daughter), a non-gay gay subplot, the "F" (gay slur), decent staging...
Don't see it if Dislike gays, extramarital affairs, obscene language
See it if you need a cold seat while a driving rain passes by or if you can be satisfied merely by enjoying Tsubasa Kamei 's imaginative set design.
Don't see it if you're still breathing. Seriously, there is absolutely no reason to see this show. Next time I'll check reviews before grabbing comps.
See it if you enjoy long scene changes, insipid characters, and gross overacting.
Don't see it if you prefer good writing, good acting, good direction.
See it if You would like to see a family deal with sobriety, sexual identity, adultry and where it leads them
Don't see it if You're not into family drama
See it if like plot twists and good characters.
Don't see it if not entertained with serious issues.
See it if You have an interest in addiction.
Don't see it if You can't face reality of addiction.
See it if You think a gay plot means having a brief 1 second male-to-male kiss (and nothing else throughout the whole show!)
Don't see it if You want a coherent plot or good acting. The last scene is baffling, & comes out of nowhere. Almost 2 hours with no intermission. Very slow
See it if The alcoholism recovery angle is not believable. The gay angle seems to have been an afterthought.
Don't see it if The concept and the script are weak and the acting conforms to the material. Sorry, I wanted to like it.
See it if You like drama in which all the elements of the theatrical production, acting, the score etc., are good; it rarely happens.
Don't see it if you do not like serious theatre, and prefer light entretaiment.
