Ambitious, Banal, Relevant, Thought-provoking, Great projections

See it if for a very talented dancer/performer with important/moving insights on gentrification/homelessness. The production design was nice.

Don't see it if subpar scripts and acting phase you. The verse was sloppy + the character acting was inconsistent. Needs more development, but worthwhile!

Theatre is Easy
August 24th, 2016

"Kilusan’s writing is part long-form poem, part political statement; it entertains with its witty metaphors while conveying the agony of homelessness, even if it is a little heavy-handed in its message…Puts on a vibrant low-tech projections display that creates the backdrop for the entire performance...Kilusan’s performing talents are best showcased in the dramatic switches he makes between his own voice and physicality, and the voice and physicality of his 'scene partner.'"
