Intelligent, Sublime, Well paced, Great acting, Absorbing

See it if You're looking to see a thought provoking, well paced one-act play with great performances and a fantastic book.

Don't see it if I can't think of any good reason not to, unless you're generally turned off or disinterested by more political shows.

Intelligent, Great acting, Absorbing

See it if into a 5-hander about flexing ideology; resonant and well-performed. Remarkable for an Off-Off production.

Don't see it if well... it is a bit cerebral, but you will recognize current topics in these past scenes.
