Absorbing, Edgy, Thought-provoking

See it if seeing all sides of the story and all types of opinions is exhilirating and stimulating, even about a subject like campus rape

Don't see it if you are squeamish about the subject matter (campus rape) or discussing it

Topical, Confusing, Disturbing, Great acting

See it if Well acted w/ slick production values, but the important message about what constitutes rape rendered unnecc ambiguous by incoherent script.

Don't see it if subject matter bothers you or you're bored by slow action w/ lots of exposition. Reporter wasn't v. good at her job; works against message.

Great writing, Compelling, Upsetting, Thought-provoking, Relevant

See it if you're interested in a really well-written, probing, incisive play about rape on college campuses.

Don't see it if a production that doesn't quite rise to the quality level of the script would frustrate you.

Absorbing, Ambitious, Relevant, Thought-provoking, Edgy

See it if you want a serious play about a serious matter, you are interested in journalistic issues, campus rape issues

Don't see it if you want light comedy; would have difficulty listening to stories about rape, are not interested in reality based stories and prefer fantasy

Absorbing, Relevant

See it if like good acting, interesting staging and topical issues. Good until the end, then it left me a little unsatisfied. Still worthwile.

Ambitious, Serious topic, Relevant, Pedantic, Stilted

See it if it is a very important topic and college sexual assaults need to be recognized. good discussion starter with young adults. good acting

Don't see it if it has no dramatic arc, you do not get emotionally connected to any character. i felt distanced and like a rehash of true events

"‘STET’ offers a sharp look at the struggles that come with reporting a critical story while maintaining the integrity of both the journalist and the source…The play is written in a highly conversational flow, allowing for the thoughts and motives behind each character to shine through truthfully."
