Joke Hold

What I liked

For a short-ish play, everyone was given a nice background and good forward momentum. I loved the intertwining of their stories outside the improv room and how the manipulation played for each.

What I didn't like

I thought Sy’s character (the leader of the group) got a little bit lost at the end and I wondered why he totally got limp. But I did like the social metaphor of those who do fade away…

My overall impression

Great ensemble acting and strong writing – an emotional, social hot-button metaphor!
