About the Show

Less Than Rent Theatre presents the world premiere of this Jacobean revenge comedy set in suburban Connecticut.

The teens of Greenport, CT face a chaotic spring semester as they grapple with loyalty, lust, narcissism, and nihilism before hitting the most important night of their lives: prom. 'FMK' mashes up the high drama of Jacobean theater with classic high-school tropes into a fast-paced and highly stylized epic. Secrets are spilled, backs are stabbed, and the survivors are left to count the dead and wonder how and why they got out alive. Best for ages 13 and up.

Painfully long, Excruciating, Entertaining, Indulgent

See it if There's a nugget of a good idea buried in 90 extra minutes of self-indulgence. Acting is solid given the writing they were given.

Don't see it if 3hr10min of teen angst and a shallow plot. Read more

Banal, Excruciating, Slow, Ambitious

See it if This was a touch hang. The dialogue was painful to hear and at 2:45, it was about an hour too long. Some solid performances, but still...

Don't see it if You are looking for a solidly constructed show. You can’t relate to adolescents.

Slow, Raunchy, Intense, Edgy, Violent

See it if You are interested in a new take on a Jacobean tragedy, specifically “T’is Pity She’s a Whore” You enjoy plays about today’s teens.

Don't see it if You will be disturbed by a violent, horrific extremely bloody play featuring high schoolers all of whom have taken a dangerous path.

Disappointing, Dizzying, Excruciating, Insipid, Cliched

See it if You want to test your endurance level of c**p. See how long before you want to bolt from the theatre.

Don't see it if You can avoid it. The whole experience is bad from the temperature levels of the theatre to the cacophonous music(?) that starts the play.

Ambitious, Disturbing, Frenetic

See it if you want to be in a theater full of young people - something of a rarity these days, and if you want to see some up and coming actors.

Don't see it if you'll be depressed by a bleak, depiction of millennials, with plenty of sex and self mutilation. Read more

Great acting, Great writing, Riveting, Must see

See it if A teen soap opera gone very very dark. Brilliant writing & directing. Very smart.Amazing cast,not a single weak link.Fantastic choreography

Don't see it if U really can't get into the headspace of a group of teens.U start out hating every one of them but grow to sympathize with all but 1(maybe 2 Read more

Clever, Great acting, Great staging, Quirky, Entertaining

See it if You want to see a well-directed young cast with an interesting new take on a classic 17th century tale.

Don't see it if Profanity, sex, or murder bother you

Ambitious, Disappointing, Insipid

See it if Which season of "Revenge" am I watching, or another unfunny evening of Jimmy Fallon hosting the Tonight Show. The play's energy is spot on.

Don't see it if The cast is uneven (being too kind, on my part, models turned actors?) and too big, hence no character development, or very little...a mess.

Critic Reviews (1)

“Vicious teenagers do battle in modern-day Connecticut in James Presson's Jacobean-style revenge comedy, directed by Sash Bischof...The show begins with promising stylishness, but despite a talented and attractive young cast, it unravels completely just as the noose should be tightening. What might have worked fine in 90 sleek minutes is tortured out—stretched on racks of banality, glibness, and total implausiblity—into three exhausting hours.”
