Review by BRYAN WAYNE

June 25, 2024 certified reviewer

What I liked

The “split screen” theater was brilliant – purgatory on one side and living parents in counseling on the other. The dialogue between lost children and distressed parents was nearly perfect – neither was directly talking to the other, yet their words meshed well together as if answering each other’s deepest needs. The quality of acting and range of emotions shown was stupendous. I cried along too, as well as many others in the audience! A great experience.

What I didn't like

Frankly it was very well done. If I have to pick something, I might have liked to see more background information and/or resolution concerning the child who killed all the others.

My overall impression

I loved this production. It was a deeply moving and emotional experience. The story slowly unfolded, giving us bits and pieces to figure out exactly what was happening. Each revelation was exciting and made you gasp a little bit, and gave us a chance to adjust to next level of emotion.
