Review by SHARI BOWLES GIBBONS

What I liked

The writing, acting, directing, interactivity, clever use of the space, laugh out loud quips and jokes, intriguing commentary.

What I didn't like

The actor that plays the professor is wonderful but some audience members may feel bogged down at times with professorial language. I find making this comment awkward as I never like to say that a writer should speak down to the audience but there is a balance between entertainment, edutainment, and education and can be a tightrope.

My overall impression

I really enjoyed this play!

It was clever, original, thought provoking, entertaining and funny. I’ve never seen an ‘Off Broadway’ play but I imagine the quality of work was close to that. Having been a producer of film/tv for many years, I’ve suffered through many plays in LA of people I know well and this was light years ahead of all of them.

Thanks for the wonderful experience!
