Clever, Funny, Quirky, Delightful, Great acting

See it if a touching and funny play with actors transitioning beautifully from humans to chickens might appeal.

Don't see it if a somewhat absurdist play is not for you.

Quirky, Creative, Entertaining, Simple but sweet

See it if you'd like to see the most realistic human-chickens ever. You're up for a pleasant but unchallenging relationship story of a gay couple.

Don't see it if you want a challenging or thought-provoking show. If you hate the sound of clucking chickens (it's very realistic!). Read more

Promising playwright, Committed and game cast, Satisfying use of limited resources

Absorbing, Great acting, Romantic, Great writing, Funny

See it if You want to see a great cast in an intimate setting performing a great play. You want to see the cast do fantastic chicken impressions.

Don't see it if You don't like plays in intimate settings. You are not comfortable seeing scenes with male partners showing affection towards each other.
