Absorbing, Entertaining, Ambitious

See it if You enjoy a combination of drag ball/murder mystery solving. There is a lot of participation, so don't go if you're shy.

Don't see it if You don't want to move around much, or speak with performers or your fellow patrons. Or you are afraid of too much shade being thrown at you

Theatermania
October 7th, 2013
For a previous production

"Not mere entertainment, but a living, breathing manifestation of the underworld on Manhattan's West Side in the late '80s. Rarely have I seen audiences so invested...It really knows how to bring you into a story and make it personal...Writer and director D'Amore has brought this gritty city to life, digging deep to expose the injustices of an era that feels alien to residents of 2013 New York...This tale of murder and injustice from 1988 is deadly relevant, on top of being excellent theater."
