What I liked

The actors channeled 4th graders very effectively, yet also intertwined adult themes and conversations. I found it funny that the fact of 4th graders being married was never questioned or explained.

What I didn't like

My only criticism is that the actor who played Ralph didn’t project to the back of the house, where I was sitting. Possibly, he is more of an on-camera actor.

My overall impression

Divorce is hilarious, inventive, an completely entertaining. I enjoyed every minute of it. The music was well crafted, with lyrics that had a laugh in every line. The story was presented in such an original manner – 4th graders getting divorced. Crazy!
