What I liked

The brothers were cast well! Some very funny dynamics between them. Since I grew up in a family of brothers, I laughed a lot. Some of the visual effects were quite creative and the scenes with Mom were touching.

What I didn't like

This play is gloriously odd and funny so it’s hard to criticize….exactly what a Fringe play should be! I loved it!

My overall impression

I consider this one of the Fringier plays, as it explores controversial secrets with sensitivity and wit. There were two scenes that took me completely by surprise and I love unpredictability! It’s a wonderfully quirky play that remains compelling throughout the full 90 minutes. For me, a big part of its success lies with the talented actor playing the complex Colin. A sensitive, soulful performance that draws you in and anchors the story.
