Review by JARED PIXLER (HE/HIM)

What I liked

The use of the space was well coordinated and some great moments and on-liners especially from Colin (Jon Gormley) and notable performances from Faith (Lauren Ashley Oliver) and Thax (David McCusker). It is a generally enjoyable show.

What I didn't like

I’m not 100% sold on the direction of the show from a script perspective. I would have liked to care even a little about what the characters we’re going through. But they were all so superficial that it was hard to care about any of them. It was sometimes a comedy, some kind drama and even melodrama I think if it could pick a solid direction or find a better balance of two it could be even better.

My overall impression

A pretty straight forward stereotyped out script, dealing with essentially superficial “Hollywood or upperclass type” group of late twenties to forty somethings (though id generally say more in the 30+ range. There are some great quips in the show from some standout actors and some great moments of ensemble work.
