What I liked

Excellent acting performances, a sharp script that moves fast, genuinely touching moments balanced with ferocious comedy and a bold story. As charming as it is thoughtful.

What I didn't like

I loved the play as it is, I do wonder if one day we could get a version where we get to meet characters like Ophelia and Mercucio on the stage, that could be fun.

My overall impression

A really funny, insightful, thought-provoking theatre show that works both as a tribute to the works of Shakespeare but as a reflective piece on what it truly means to be a good friend.
