Drawn-out, Predictable, Great acting, Relevant

See it if you have a particular interest in the show, the actors, or in how families handle grief and loss of health.

Don't see it if you're looking for anything uplifting or wholly absorbing. It could have been about half an hour shorter.

Clever, Disappointing, Intelligent, Slow

See it if Acting by L Taylor and Garofalo superb. Also the young actor who plays the teenager.

Don't see it if First 2 rows in Orch. below the stage. Beyond Row G, Roundabout needs a better sound system. Set too spread out.

Dated, Disappointing, Great acting, Sort of funny, Ok

See it if see Lili Taylor and Janeane Garafolo; the show is fair, the cast is excellent; needs more laughs if it's supposed to be a comedy

Don't see it if you want a real comedy or a real drama; it's ok if you have nothing better to do

Disappointing

See it if you must.

Don't see it if you enjoy clear dialogue that you are able to hear. So much of the show is inaudable
