What I liked
Call backs, the actual response of people finding out we all had the same names beneath our bishops hat, it gave a really intimate touch before play even started. The utilization of the crew for the sheer size of the venue, amazing blocking and coordination made it flow so well between scenes the music seemed to out last how quickly the production wrapped set change. Well oiled and maintained crew
What I didn't like
No real gripes, cast was excellent granted time and space, as if there were the ability to fill out with more due to a bigger theater space I wouldn’t expect the space to have any less, just more background talent to bulk out. Amazing job for such a tight crew, yall knew each other well enough to lean in and do things that most intimate theaters can’t so keeping the crowd even more engaged would be a plus. We are all nervous entering theaters maybe ice breaker or some sort of game but the cardinal ranks was an amazing touch.
My overall impression
Funny, reverent, overall a leisurely meander around the Black Sea with two of the most obnoxiously self obsessed emperors. Call backs kept the crowd engaged and on their toes, great experience for an on the whim attendance and pleased I made it to the second to last showing!!
