Great acting, Great staging, Intelligent, Sterile, Thought-provoking

See it if you are interested in events that show a very dark side of humanity. Very few people know about these experiments and they're terrifying.

Don't see it if you are looking for subtle, nuanced writing. The play covers the material in a very "then this happened" manner. I missed the horror of it.

Ambitious, Intelligent, Thought-provoking

See it if question of following orders has long been one which perplexes society. This examines it a personal/group view, with uncomfortable results

Don't see it if you don't want to think about that question of 'what would you do'?'

Ambitious, Off-pace, Uneven, Intelligent

See it if Like psych/neuroscience and history, appreciate the inherently theatrical setup of the Milgram, to support art in science/science in art

Don't see it if Looking for a polished, complete product, or for consistently professional talent, don't sit in the side seats; the radiator is thunderous

Absorbing, Great acting, Great staging, Great writing, Intelligent

See it if you like thought provoking drama. Intertwining of events that speak to our obedience to authority and mob mentality; stays with you.

Don't see it if Don't want to be introspective or to expend the energy to get to an out of the way theater even though the play is worth the effort
