Edgy, Intense, Thought-provoking, Ambitious

See it if you want to be challenged. If you're willing to let it wash over you. It was quite profound on reflection. Well staged.

Don't see it if you're not up for some creative thinking and challenges. If you have short attention span or like your show's plot to be handed to you.

Don't see it if you're afraid of clowns: the cast's fascinating vaudevillians have terrifying masks and seem often on the verge of infiltrating the audience
