What I liked

Ben’s oddly charming and anxiously disgruntled portrayal of a corporate cog is delightful in this performance.

His wavering perseverance to give the audience what they came for helped give a somewhat dystopian atmosphere. The way his character communicates with the audience makes you feel like an idle machine eagerly waiting to to be satisfied, while also feeling human with patience and understanding towards the problems he faces throughout the show. It really sheds light on the emptiness of corporations and the desperation of its employees.

What I didn't like

I wished for a moment for Ben’s character to break out of his timidness and exude a newfound confidence (albeit wouldn’t make this show’s ending so fun).

My overall impression

It is a lovely show with an even more lovely actor who keeps the audience curious and entertained.
