What I liked

I can see why this show had a successful run at Second City. My friend and I are experienced theater goers. I don’t hand out compliments lightly, but I liked almost everything about this show. First, the concept was fresh and relevant. Secondly, each song unique, interesting and moved the story and character development along. I thought the lyrics were awesome—the rhyme schemes clever. Lastly, the cast were all talented and handled the material well. As I said before, the whole production was a nice theatrical surprise. I wish I had the time to see it again. I’d encourage everyone to try to get to the last show which I’m sure will sell out.

What I didn't like

One of the actors was difficult to hear. I think he was trying to be cool which bright down his volume compared to everyone else.

My overall impression

Congrats to the whole cast and crew: My expectations were way over exceeded!
