What I liked

There were some really well realized performances, which can be difficult when a show weaves many monologues within scenes. Every actor that hit the stage gave very committed performances. Sean James specifically set the tone in every scene he was in, giving levity within an absurd setting.

What I didn't like

Momentum slowed dramatically in spots, the transitions could (should) be tightened up. There were a few scenes mid show that were a smidge too slow a smidge too quiet which led to my mind wandering. Speaking of quiet, a few of the actor need to project. I was in the middle of the audience straining to hear at times. I can’t imagine sitting in the back of this theater with a full house and catching everything these actors worked so hard to give.

My overall impression

A deliciously strange piece of art.
