Ambitious, Funny, Enchanting, Clever

See it if If you want to see a show that deals with relationships that are not socially acceptable. Funny at times. Play moves well.

Don't see it if If you don't like docu theater or it's touchy subject matter

Ambitious, Clever, Insightful

See it if you're interested in hearing many interesting stories about peoples experiences with non monogamy

Don't see it if you don't enjoy single actor shows or need elaborate staging. It was very well executed, give it a shot!

Must see, Thought-provoking, Edgy

See it if you're interested in relationships and a wide range of people's experiences that you will likely never get access to without this show!

Don't see it if Docutheater is a turn-off for you. You aren't interested in other people. You hate to laugh and/or think deeply.

Refreshing, Intelligent, Funny, Great acting, Clever

See it if you like plays that make you think differently about something you already know.

Don't see it if you're squeamish or uncomfortable with the idea of nonmonogamy.

The New York Times
September 22nd, 2021

"A thoughtful, layered, smirk-free show about people constructing their intimate lives outside socially accepted bounds, it makes a humanizing, live-and-let-live case for consensual, ethical non-monogamy."

"Actor and playwright Xandra Nur Clark takes the stage, and in an assumed nod to Anna Deavere Smith, she begins to act out a collection of 21 carefully-edited interviews she’s gathered with various people on the topic of polyamory and non-monogamy"

"An excellent performance...Clark presents a thoughtful and nuanced look at nonmonogamy. While the interviews often reflect positive and loving experiences, they also show us darker sides in polyamorous experiences like racism and dishonesty."
