Great writing, Quirky, Relevant, Great acting, Entertaining

See it if you'd like 3 one-acts with the grace of David Greenspan, the hilarity of Amando Houser & Priscilla Flores and others with drag queen intros.

Don't see it if you want a fluid show - I felt the drag lip-syncing distracted from the one-acts and would have preferred a more unifying presentation.

Imaginative, Creatively uneven, Entertaining

See it if You would like a sometimes fun, sometimes uneven evening of campy/creepy one acts hosted by a drag vamp.

Slow, Impressive, though minimal, staging, The between scene bits didn't really work, All the acting was good, but the writing was mid., Surprisingly slow for a show with a disco ball

See it if Everyone here is game and trying really hard, and it's nice to see drag/queer theater, but it just doesn't hold together. Not BAD, just meh.

Don't see it if You want to see something that's fully baked. I really wanted to like this, but nothing here is good enough to warrant your time.

Go see david greenspan, Not boner inducing, Connective tissue needs work, Under cooked, 3 one acts worth seeing

See it if want 2C David Greenspan, PriscillaFlores, AmondoHouser, CurtisGillen, JanLeslieHarding, RebeccaRobertson & JohnWmWatkins make JoeyMerlo work

Don't see it if Seemingly unrehearsed dragshow connective elements would ruin the 3 interesting one act plays that make up the evening's Midnight Coleslaw

"one-acts that explore queer culture and perspective through (low) comedy and the macabre"

If OpenTable were listing it, the 55-minute show would only qualify as a side dish.
