Disappointing, Indulgent, Touching

See it if you aren't afraid of the razor edge of an issue.

Don't see it if face acting is a turn off. Acting was uneven and heavy handed, save the part played by the son who felt like a real human being.

Good acting given the script. boring, banal and cliched.

See it if you enjoy family drama, ethical issues in a dull setting. Good concept poorly executed.

Don't see it if you're looking for a fun, lively, upbeat show.

Disappointing, Cliched, Thought-provoking

See it if You like serious themes like religion and ethical dilemmas and acting that's earnest

Don't see it if You expect the writer to respect the audience by not having the actors guess stupidly about what could be wrong with their pregnant kids

Stilted, Preachy, Tedious, Disappointing

See it if You get a free ticket. Terrible script, and most of the cast overacts. The son was mostly good but his final scene was SO hokey.

Don't see it if You're looking for a satisfying theatrical experience and value your entertainment dollar.

Intense, Slow, Banal, Cliched, Disappointing

See it if I really can't recommend this play to anyone. It manages to offend both sides of the abortion debate - a neat trick.

Don't see it if A bunch of people sitting around talking about things that are none of their business. Preachy. Made no sense.
