Great writing, Confusing, Edgy, Riveting, Absorbing

See it if surreal, experimental theater; hypnotic monologues by 3 different woman who, as it turns out, are connected; takes place after a civil war*

Don't see it if if you don't want to be confused & want to leave the show knowing what happened & not saying "what was that about?' Read more

Disconnected, Beautifully written, Sometimes exhilarating

See it if you are a fan of Richard Maxwell's work & would like to see his latest variations on some longtime concerns & methods.

Don't see it if you are looking for a traditional drama with plot & interacting characters. Read more

Great staging, Indulgent, Clever, Edgy, Confusing

See it if you like torrents of poetic language, some intelligible, some not. See it if you like R. Maxwell. Good visual effects.

Don't see it if you like consistently good writing. There is also bad acting on display.

"A compellingly strange if difficult hour of theater that rewards deep focus, even as it frustrates the logical, narrative-hungry part of your brain."
