Review by JR REED

June 14, 2024 certified reviewer

What I liked

How wonderfully presented, fun and poignantly relevant it is.

What I didn't like

What could be better— You seeing it and celebrating and supporting these talented artists and me thinketh most will thoroughly enjoy your 75 minutes in a cozy theater.

My overall impression

Exceptionally entertaining. Crafty, funny, fun utilizing multiple conventions of meta reflections, self-referential pokings and sincere juxtapositions of Chuck Mee’s poignant plays. The real time, audience engaging interaction is mixed with mini re-created scenes of the plays, highlighting several topical issues around social dilemmas of love, power, gender roles and morality. Smart, enlightening and moves masterfully amongst a strong, timing-rich ensemble who have the director/co-writer slaying in the mix.
