Admirable for its ambitions but ultimately a muddle ....

See it if you want to see an accomplished group of actors almost make the outing worthwhile

Don't see it if insipid psycho-babble leads you to madness..

Ambitious, Disappointing

See it if don't mind a rambling, melodramatic play with little humor.

Don't see it if you are looking for depth, focus and insight.

Disappointing, Great staging, Indulgent, Slow, Overwrought

See it if you have time on your hands & appreciate a mostly talented cast trying to breathe life into a lifeless script. Excellent staging and set.

Don't see it if you hope to see more than a production in its initial developmental stage. Or if you're not a fan of Shakespeare - straight or overwrought.

Absorbing, Great acting, Great staging

See it if you're seeking a totally relevant story about complex, contemporary characters whose lives interconnect in fascinatingly theatrical ways.

Don't see it if you're seeking the same kind of stock stories, devices and characters that so many off-off-B'way shows have to offer.

Great writing, Slow, Resonant, Intelligent, Thought-provoking

See it if You want to see a sincere piece of theatre involving some intense psychological relationship dynamics, gorgeous moments, and a strong script

Don't see it if Don't care for some over-powering sound design that takes away from the intense moments and reminds you of a 90's indie film.

Great writing, Great acting, Intelligent, Thought-provoking, Relevant

See it if you like layered, dynamic plays about love, loss, friendship, commitment, memory and taking a risk. It is both emotional and funny.

Don't see it if you get upset seeing a romance with gay characters. This, however, is about so much more. The story is heartfelt and universal.
