What I liked

Very supportive cast. Everyone has having fun on stage and enjoying the wackiness of it all. The show has scenic description for every location projected above the sage and is done with the small scenes akin to a screenplay. Fun choice.

What I didn't like

I think the show needs some tightening. It’s fun but there were definite moments that where the energy dropped because of lines being flubbed or scenes meandering for the purpose of a joke.

Also I think settling on a style. The lead felt like he was in a different show, playing everything as hyper real, whilst a 15 year old is convincing him to buy her Molly and celebrities were making lewd sexual passes at him.

My overall impression

Fun concept. The humor is unapologetic and crass so I wouldn’t bring your kids to this one. The cast was having a great time, the audience was packed with supporters, and the material hits home for some of us long time Hollywood Dreamers.
