What I liked

Thought provoking and subtle. Pagliaccis addresses the emotional wall family and friends encounter when a loved one commits suicide. Suicide is a difficult subject to address. The strong writing by Harim Sanchez makes no apologies and leaves no comfortable corners where either the players or audience can retreat. I enjoyed it and recommend it for friends.

What I didn't like

My overall impression

Pagliaccis delivers a challenging play about a clown who has committed suicide. I recommend it for those who enjoy European “slice of life” storytelling and don’t need the “happy Hollywood ending” to be satisfied. A worthwhile play.
