Clever, Original, Abstract, Artistic

See it if You like abstract/original type of shows (ie. miming/puppetry). It is a different type of performance, but nonetheless enjoyable.

Don't see it if You want a plot, a big production or are uncomfortable with silence (all you hear are pretty much the audience reactions here and there) Read more

Clever, Entertaining, Dated, Slow

See it if creative, child like innocence, passionate performers

Don't see it if some repeats from previous shows, can get corny at times especially when you see the performers, slow, some skits are better than others.

Clever, Dated, Edgy, Slow, Disappointing

See it if Very creative. It’s a theater experience unlike any other you’ve had.

Don't see it if Show was not as creative as it used to be. Many of the bits were repetitive. Don’t see it if you can’t sit through 90 minutes of silence.

Clever, Masterful, Quirky, Enchanting, Entertaining

See it if you want to watch the wonderful mastery of the use of the theatre and lighting and puppetry and the human form.

Don't see it if you do not like the use of puppetry.

For a previous production

"Using pieces of fabric, masks, and props, the five performers take audience members on a journey with no linear narrative, but in the end, we all arrive at a destination. Once there, we discover our common joy through laughter, symbols, and simple yet striking images...On the surface, it’s incredibly humorous...But under the whimsy and wit, it points to the unique ways in which we perceive and make sense of our world...Overall, the show is deliciously timeless. It appeals to all ages."
