Also This show was uhh, interesting. I didn't know what I was supposed to be feeling at any given time. I felt like the show was all over the place. The rapping was gratuitous , the staging was unorganized and lacked purpose and the actors sitting on stage in such a prolonged silence was a tad unsettling. I felt like the acting was just okay. I mean, it was entertaining, but that's it. No depth, no meaning. And what was up with that duel dialog scene?... Read more Read less

Don't see it if you'd rather avoid cheesy writing, staging and acting that doesn't feel authentic. Also, the rapping is terrible and adds nothing.

Also Some of the lines in this show made a couple of the audience members audibly snicker. Many of the actors are playing two roles, and one of them actually changed from one to the other on-stage (took off Santa hat, put on jacket...wow). There were scenes that were supposed to take place outside, and cast members would hold up "walls" behind the performers in the scene - you could see their fingers wrapped around the sides, which was distracting. You would have to have an unbelievable amount of suspension of disbelief to be invested in the show. Also, there is a pretty groan-worthy "twist" at the end. The people who gave this a 100 in their reviews must be involved in the play or else friends/family members because REALLY?... Read more Read less
