What I liked

The writing, direction, and the performances are strong and sly. The theatre is a nice space and I also liked the simple, but versatile, set. 70 minutes without an intermission is time well spent.

What I didn't like

The sound is good, though I wish there was a bit more variety.

My overall impression

A dark satire that at first seems to be about an ambitious improv group adjusting to a challenging new cast member. It twists and turns into something far more compelling and dangerous as a broader social commentary. Funny, then chilling.
