My overall impression

Wowza! I definitely had people in my group that literally got angry and repelled by this show, but I was pretty entertained and I suppose glad I saw it. Some definite problems with the script and flow/direction of the piece, but some really interesting and balls to the wall performances (literally). I commend the performers and producers for committing fully and not apologizing for any of it. But did many moments seem to be going for shock value rather than needing them to tell the story? Yes. Was there moments I was enjoying it because I couldn’t believe they were doing it rather than being swept up by the world of the play? Yes. Obviously not for everyone but surely a spectacle to see if you’re up for it.
