What I liked

The play moved at a brisk pace with strong performances filled with wit and depth from the entire Ensemble, particularly the lead played by Eugene Cordero who anchors the whole show.

What I didn't like

The ONLY criticism I would have is the characters played by Dustin Loomis could have a bit more variation (other than that, he played them wonderfully)!

My overall impression

A thoroughly enjoyable comedy that is highly effective in being an insight on Filipino American history during the 1930’s while also being an engaging story anchored by strong performances from the ensemble.
