See it if Like mysteries and dramas about the future

Don't see it if Don't like mysteries and abrupt endings

See it if You want to see a riveting, creepy, very entertaining production that’s also affordable.

Don't see it if Artificial intelligence or small productions isn’t your thing.

Also Grab a friend or go alone. This is inexpensive theater at its best. The actors are talented. The sexual aspects are fabulously funny. Watching them make an android “human” was super creepy and brought a million questions to mind.

I completely disagree with other reviewers regarding the second half and the conclusion. I chuckled at the poetic justice and the irony near the end. Yes, it could have gone many different ways, but I liked the way it was written. I liked it a lot.... Read more Read less

Also I really liked this show. The ending may seem a bit sudden, but the issues the play brings up are fascinating. It reminded me a little of Pirandello. The author is someone to watch.... Read more Read less

Don't see it if you aren't interested in taking a chance on a new indie off-off thing.

Also I went in blind not knowing anyone involved or much about it and really enjoyed it. I'd recommend it to anyone.... Read more Read less

See it if you're into the idea of artificial intelligence as a window to our own mind, dig new work, or enjoy talky plays of emotional unpacking.

Don't see it if you need a big-budget, polished production, or are more interested in dramatic action than discussing ideas or examining emotions.

See it if you like mind-bending, thoughtful science fiction examining issues of humanity & technology in microcosm. It made good use of a small space.

Don't see it if you're looking for the fun, lighthearted escapism that often comes with science fiction on stage. Also, the quality of acting varies.

See it if You're interested in AI and sci-fi. Gripping story which moves pretty quickly.

Don't see it if it's already closed so it's too late anyway.

Also Agree that the ending was a little weird. Still glad I saw the show though... Read more Read less

See it if Creative, thought provoking theatre with great acting and an interesting story

Don't see it if you want something light and fluffy.

Also Please note that the theatre was very warm so dress appropriately.

See it if Relationship with android poses questions about what makes us human. Are there lines our technology should not cross?

See it if you read Philip K Dick or other science fiction, are intrigued by artificial intelligence, liked Marjorie Prime. Intimate show worth seeing

Don't see it if you dont like stories about robots. It strives for complexity but is ultimately simplistic. Location is out of the way in far West Village

See it if you enjoy sci fi related shows

Don't see it if you're not into quirky small productions

See it if You have some interest in Artificial Intelligence or sci fi. Its an interesting plot, if not particularly compelling.

Don't see it if You need top-notch acting and fast moving action. (It feels even longer than it is.)

See it if you want to consider the potential ramifications of artificial general intelligence

Don't see it if you've already extensively explored AI and/or exponential technologies

Also I'm steeped in machine learning, natural language processing, and other forms of emerging technologies on a daily basis. With the exception of a twist that comes too late in the show, there wasn't much new here for me. However, I do realize that I am not an average theater-goer when it comes to understanding of AI.... Read more Read less

Don't see it if You're looking for an exciting, refreshing, or original spin on the questions surrounding A.I.

See it if You wanna see amazing and surprisingly heart breaking acting from an Android.

Don't see it if You like plays with well defined characters. They were thinly drawn and, with a couple stand outs, acted as written.

See it if Sorry, no surprises here. Like a '50s scifi movie, with some contemporary jargon thrown in. The actors couldn't make it believable.

Don't see it if You are expecting ideas, conflict or meaningful resolution.

See it if If you want to see a very good new show with the potential to be great.

Don't see it if If you only want to see shows fully ready to reach the next level.

Also Emily Jackson's direction is brilliant. The weak scene transitions that often mar new shows are not present here. The acting is very good. The writing is wonderful - as far is it goes. The last two scenes need major changes that will allow it to be clear to the audience that all the characters are freed with the "final" action.... Read more Read less

Don't see it if Spoiler alert--If you have trouble watching shows that deal with how depression and probable suicide can affect friends and family.

See it if You like science fiction or at least futuristic...but very believable and with a pretty good storyline that's relatable and resonates.

Don't see it if You can't think a little outside the box when it comes to plots. This has a touch of The Twilight Zone to it.

See it if You like interesting, well-told stories by extremely capable performers. You can put up with a few minor plot holes and confusing moments.

Don't see it if You like only hyper-realistic plays or can't live without a clear, unambiguous ending. You will be upset by discussions of mental illness.

Also Adult language. Some discussion of "sex robots." Probably appropriate for older teens (15-plus).... Read more Read less
