What I liked

I absolutely loved the slow motion action sequence. I love movement in any theatre piece. It was executed superbly well too. I also really like the use of the stage and the panels. Creative and useful. Loved the shadow work!

What I didn't like

I did feel it could of been 15/20 minutes shorter. After a while it seemed we were covering the same conversation and the singing felt a little “extra”.

My overall impression

Work to proud of. It most definitely is a story that needs to be told. I appreciate any history lesson in theatre and this had that. I do believe all the actors worked so well together. Great ensemble work. Great directing!
