What I liked
Frellick’s characters and dialogue crackle with authenticity. Charlton guides his cast with an intensity that builds with every scene. The cast is a well-rounded set of pros that we recognize as facets of ourselves. There’s plenty of lovability and creepiness at every turn to keep you guessing!
What I didn't like
Parking is always tricky in Hollywood – so plan accordingly. Luckily there is a great restaurant, Tu Madre, next door with an amazing menu.
My overall impression
A laser-sharp script, great ensemble cast and smart direction! Anyone involved with the theatre will recognize the all-too familiar backstage politics and shenanigans. Paul Frellick’s play turns up the heat with an unsettling dark comedy. Under the direction of William Charlton, we watch a cast of six comedy improvisers preparing for their big show – one of whom slowly begins to undermine their efforts. The laughs quickly turn to gasps in a play that turns the “Yes And” on its head.
