Thought-provoking, Resonant, Great writing, Great acting, Absorbing

See it if you enjoy a powerful exploration of what it means to be a gay man in the United States, livened with plenty of humor.

Don't see it if you prefer high tech productions or musicals. This is definitely an old-fashion off-Broadway production with an accent on the acting.

Entertaining, Thought-provoking, Great acting, Intense, Absorbing

See it if you're gay or interested in LGBT theme of being in the closet or coming out of it. Great closet metaphor w/ a touch of "Back in the Future".

Don't see it if you're not interested in LGBT theme, small venue w/ obstructed views. The stage is too low & only front row could see actions on the floor.
