See it if You like a wide variety of short theatre pieces -- seen in the order you choose them. Have a short attention span. Don't mind being crowded.
Don't see it if Aren't open to varying levels of talent and polish. Are claustrophobic. You are made nervous by experimental or interactive performance. Read more
See it if You get the opportunity to see previews of works in progress/parts of plays which are already up. V creative staging in areas of college.
Don't see it if You may get confused/rushed trying to fit as many in as you can! You can't walk easily or dislike non traditional forms of performance.
See it if you like the idea of exploring a space and experiencing unexpected performance art at every turn; you want to learn about exciting off-off!
Don't see it if you don't like experimental &/or immersive work, you don't like crowds or walking around to discover art, if you don't like cramped spaces
See it if You like experimental theater. Or you want to try something different. Or something that makes you think.
Don't see it if You like structure. Or are looking for straight entertainment.
See it if You enjoy immersive and experimental shows, and you hope to support off-off-broadway theater companies and performers.
Don't see it if You don't want to watch short plays (10 mins each), some of which are good, but others are just plain or incomprehensible.
See it if Buffet-style format for adventurous downtown performance groups to showcase work Personal Faves: The Fire This Time & Pumpkin Pie Show
Don't see it if Travel to different venues proves daunting w/o guide Some shows more fragment than 'playlet' Very crowded at peak times A+ for maiden effort
See it if You are interested in the work of any of the groups involved or want to see a mix of different styles of theater.
Don't see it if You are hoping to see a cohesive piece or learn a great deal about any of the companies. Fun idea, but execution could have been better.
See it if You like the idea of moving from place to place to see different works. The format was interesting.
Don't see it if You want to see a single, long play.
