What I liked

Ann Noble’s writing is razor-sharp and her direction is impeccable. Ann and the rest of the cast emody their characters with verve. All are required to play either different characters, or different versions of their characters and they move between these with effortless charm. Jeffrey Johnson wows, Robin McDonald sizzles and Christian Haines lets us in on the joke with simultaneous nuance and outrageousness. I don’t want to give any spoilers, but there is a point where the shows takes a turn, and the deftness with which these actors take us on that ride is damn near perfect.

What I didn't like

I liked everything. No critiques (and I’m not an easy to please). Well done to the producers, Carolina Rodriguez and Michael Perlmutter

My overall impression

Very funny, unexpectedly sweet, clever writing, well-directed and beautifully acted
