What I liked

Performances were very good. Truly enjoyed the characters and situations. Wonderful use of multi-media as well. Simple but effective use of the stage. Very enjoyable writing. The actors truly seemed to drop into the roles nicely after the first few beats of opening-night nerves. Each role was clear and unique from each other. Very creative direction to create the sense of story as well with staging and transitions.

Each role had their challenges and I feel the actors were able to handle themselves extremely well.

What I didn't like

Nothing jumps out to be honest as being something I didn’t enjoy about the performance.

My overall impression

Overall I can recommend this show. There were some very good laughs and some nice emotional depth as well brought out in the performance. Devin Crittenden was so in the world that when a phone went off during the performance he was able to incorporate it into the overall story without missing a beat (turns out he is improv trained so that helped a lot) and it actually helped propel the show energy even more.

It was clear that the chemistry between cast members was there and it helped the play to be fun.

This is one not to miss!
