What I liked

I entered the show thinking I was going to see a heavy drama about the legality of DNA evidence and was treated to a really hysterical play that got me cackling with laughter while they punched me in the gut (in the best way) with really heavy and heartbreaking facts about the gross miscarriage of justice in this, our flawed legal system, which is only as good or bad as the actors who use it (pun intended).

What I didn't like

I only wish I could have read the longer slides for a split second longer, but the slides were hilarious.

My overall impression

So funny, which makes it all there disturbing considering the subject matter.
