Benevolence

What I liked

I liked the staging. The story is told in scenes – no surprise there – but the scenes fall into three groups and all three groups remain on stage.

What I didn't like

Be patient. I haven’t shared in the experiences shown on stage, so it took me most of the first half hour to relate to the characters. However, once I was hooked, my patience was paid off.

My overall impression

Excellent. Full-length, dramatic play – something rare in the Hollywood Fringe. Characters are well-written and all eight actors gave exceptional performances. Worth seeing before it’s gone.
