Ambitious, Great acting, Edgy, Intense, Confusing

See it if You want a new spin on a classic which adds arias to the text, here in English. The actors, on a minamilist set draw us into their hell.

Don't see it if 2 hours of psycho-philosophical dialogue on a bare stage would bore you. Wish there were translations of the arias so I knew how they tie in

Intense, Great writing

See it if you love the play, you are open to creative staging

Don't see it if you are in the mood for something quick, light, and fluffy, or very true to script (there are some iffy directing choices)
