Show-Score Member Reviews (15)
See it if Ridley's dark, satiric dramedy is an unwieldy mash-up of Dr Faustus, MacBeth & conspicuous consumption keeping its director & cast adrift
Don't see it if Production starts off well in a comedically perverse way but runs aground as the script spins out of control moving from perverse to inane
See it if you want to see Trumpesque celebration of gentrification. Good placement of the actors on stage.
Don't see it if you want direction and acting that embrace the satire that the 59e59 2016 production seemed to embrace and Ridley probably wanted. Read more

Don't see it if Venue is a bit dated
See it if The playwright wrote a witty play. The actors are great.

See it if You like comedy, religious allegory and to reflect on the human condition. Fun show. Different.
Don't see it if You need perfection.
See it if Your sense of humor runs toward satire like "A Modest Proposal".
Don't see it if You're into the glitz of Broadway shows. Utilizing an abstract set and small talented cast works best for this macabre tale.
See it if You want to be provoked and you want to laugh.
Don't see it if You don’t like seeing theater that shines a mirror on the world.
See it if You like meaningful theatre and strong direction. Sit toward the front or middle.
Don't see it if You love the back row but expect to hear everything.
