Intense, Great acting, Confusing, Dated, Absorbing

See it if you enjoy high intensity French plays with whiplash dialogue and BDSM edge. You want to support local (Astoria) theater.

Don't see it if you only like big Broadway musicals. You don't like dialogue heavy plays. You like a strong narrative arc with a definitive or happy ending.
