My overall impression

Devils are always so captivating…. and so was this one especially his ruby eyes that mesmerized!

Punch and the devil opened the show…. clobbering each other… which was fun and my inner adult child rather enjoyed this…. and then the boss lucifer himself comes out as a beautifully crafted puppet… and he started out with bible verses… and what seemed to be his life story narrated by an off stage narrator…. somewhere I got lost and could no longer follow the story and didn’t understand where it was going….. and only having the Devil on stage made my mind wander to other things….. Personally I felt this piece could be darker… and perhaps was a little too vanilla…. I came out really liking lucifer… and thought that he was not that bad but rather a bore…..

Set design, and puppets were well done….. but I would like to see this story go deeper… and get very raw….
