What I liked
I commend the playwright for conceiving such an off-the-wall concept for a play. The energy of the ensemble was palpably genuine. I particularly enjoyed the performance of Why and Chicken.
What I didn't like
After having watched the show, I re-read the synopsis as well as reviews that others have written and I still don’t understand how the show was comedic and supposed to represent a political satire of our modern times. If there are other viewers like me who are left scratching their heads, perhaps the writing can be tweaked to help us better understand this play.
My overall impression
There was a lot of running around and physical movement on the stage. There were moments when there seemed to be a build of commotion but I never quite understood what the point of it was. The overall concept of the piece is very abstract, which I usually enjoy, but it never quite ‘clicked’ with me. Our showtime was supposed to be 5:30 but we didn’t get let into the house until 5:50 (which may not be the show’s fault). I think that is the reason why we did not have an intermission when we were supposed to have one.
