My overall impression
You know how you can tell that a song is really good if it gets stuck in your head after just one listen? This play is that good. After seeing it last night, the beautifully-played scenes and poignant questions about our the way we live our lives (as actors and laymen alike) are the first things I woke up thinking about this morning. The script is brilliant – it will engage and surprise you for the entire hour, forcing you to participate in the world of the story. The production as whole creates theatrical experience that awards you for being a live audience; it blurs the line between actor and watcher, making you hyper-aware that you’re breathing the same air and living with the same questions. If you want to remember why you love live theater, go see this play.
