What I liked

The vast array of characters, each in an intimate setting (vignette) that offer experiences from Light and Cheery to the Dark and Morose, all of which build the story slowly and which demand choices and participation from the audience. It makes you think and react, not just simply observe.

What I didn't like

As the story evolves and new chapters are offered, I think it would be helpful to occasionally offer repeat performances of the earlier chapters. Even though it is quite possible and enjoyable for an audience member to jump in at any point in the story, I know that once they do they will want to absorb it in entirety. The Fringe performances allowed us that luxury and we very much appreciated it. Addicting.

My overall impression

Amazing! Do you want texture,ambiance, subtlety as well as in your face action and intrigue, while personally participating and interacting within the story line? Well, then this is your cup of tea!
This show is destined to to grow a large, cult like following and is well on it’s way. Go with a friend or group, there will be lot’s of intrigue and mystery to discuss, compare, analyze and speculate on for days and weeks after.

Fun,Fun, Fun -Don’t hesitate,Get tickets while you can.
