Indulgent, Great staging, Great singing, Entertaining, Fun

See it if you love fun in a creative environment. Sit in a ball pit or car & watched performers launched from an avocado trampoline stage!

Don't see it if you need a compelling plot. This is a series of songs loosely related via the theme of being a millennial. Read more

"Life being as it nowadays is, there’s nothing about Elliot Clay’s song cycle that won’t strike a chord regardless of age, and older millennials are anyway hitting their forties."

"There is no weak link in this cast of six, who work as well as an ensemble as they do individually. But while this is a good first outing for this new musical, it could do with digging deeper than its prettily decorated interior."

"The show is an enjoyable mix of dancing, pop songs and props for the audience to interact with, but it doesn't really capture what it is to be a millennial."
