See it if you want to see an innovative production of an unconventional Tennessee Williams' play with a tangled plot and with witty, poetic dialogue.
Don't see it if you want to see a play with a clear, linear narrative or are unwilling to see a show in a theater with the air conditioning turned off.
See it if you want to see something different on the topic of fear acted very well with a glimpse into the life of Williams and his sister.
Don't see it if you have a hard time with lots of dialogue, some softly spoken, some very loud along with loud banging.
See it if you want to hear Williams'elegant prose as if going through the mind of Beckett. Beautifully directed by Pendleton.
Don't see it if if you are looking for a straight forward play.
See it if Unconvential theater using staging and audience as tools in the performance. Great acting, great direction,
Don't see it if Looking for convential linear performance. Often confusing and with a/c turned off during performance hand held fans and cold water issued.

See it if You love Williams &can separate the good performances of the leads from the overacting of fake audience members inexplicably placed on stage
Don't see it if You don't like intricate plots, overwarm theatres, or the distraction of hand fans waved by the audience around the theatre and on stage.
See it if If you love Tennessee Williams, especially his later, existential work.
Don't see it if If you're looking for a fine tuned production of this very challenging work.
See it if Two well acted roles.. Tennessee Williams is always a must see. Hand fans most appreciated. One must like disturbing & experimental plays.
Don't see it if Not best play by Tennessee Williams.. No need to cut off A/C. Actors did need it. Spurts of whispering.
