What I liked

The tone of the show really hit home the process of how the person lost control as she was literally, packaged, sold, and used up, and it was told in an entirely physical way. The projections, lighting, and sound tied to the action to provide an appropriately disturbing show. The choreography was deceptively simple and extremely effective.

What I didn't like

I guess maybe just to get more of a sense of the individual portrayed and their specific emotional experience. But truly, I thought it was great.

My overall impression

Toys is a dark, important piece about sex trafficking. It is well worth your time.
