See it if desire movement/music amalgam that examines human touch, cello as a character, & storytelling about the masseur & the massaged & why

Don't see it if not interested in massage or naked men or how live music enhances an experience, expect a more finished production, hate the moan of a cello

Clever, Thought-provoking, Intelligent, Quirky, Riveting

See it if you want to explore the importance of touch set amongst a story of pain and mystery with wonderful cello music.

Don't see it if you want an ending with a true conclusion. You are left to put it all together for yourself.

Relevant, Thought-provoking, Slow, Edgy, Quiet

See it if you enjoy a quiet show that makes a loud statement. This is a stripped down (no pun intended) piece featuring beautiful, live cello music.

Don't see it if adult themes bother you, or you’re looking for something uplifting and cheerful.

Fluffy, Slow, Disappointing

See it if You want to watch a slow moving play. Could even make an hour play with fast phasing acts. 10/20 seconds of gap on some scenes is not ok

Don't see it if Want to see nude male actors. White actor and the musician is good though. Prod staff could be heard from your seats giving cues
