Great writing, Intimate, Slow, Great acting, Lovely

See it if you're interested in short plays featuring really smart writing examining some very small, intimate moments with style and honesty.

Don't see it if you're only wowed by high production value. This is a scrappy production but the writing and acting and direction are pretty great.

Quirky, Intelligent, Resonant, Thought-provoking, Entertaining

See it if You like the idea of 6 unique, short plays, focusing on women, & don't need intricate sets or epic stories to enjoy a trip to the theater.

Don't see it if you judge shows on their sets, costumes, etc. This isn't for people that seek a flashy musical, or memorable drama. It's good, but neither.

Needs debra messing

See it if You enjoy a grab bag, pot luck evening of theater.

Ambitious, Great acting, Quirky, Disappointing, Amateurish

See it if you can appreciate good acting and some interesting vignettes despite a less than professional presentation.

Don't see it if you didn't like talent night at camp. Read more
