Daddy

My overall impression

This show does an excellent job of balancing dark issues with a bit of comedy. The cast is spot on in their moments of lightheartedness. Led by powerhouse lead Bethy Poluikis this cast plays their roles as members of an estranged family with such believability that you can see elements of all families in them. The set changes and tech elements still need a bit of work and they could easily shave 5-6 minutes from the show by simplifying set changes. While this is a compelling idea for a play, the script could be tightened in spots and elongated in other places. It has the characters talk around the issue for the majority of the show rather than deal with it. Great performances by the cast do make it something worth seeing!
