I saw this play and don't remember a thing about it, other than it was terrible.

Went by mistake, thinking I was going to the very well-received "Dead Man's Cellphone" by the excellent Sarah Ruehl. Instead, this trash. I've been to worse but not much.

This show was hilarious!! Great writing and a fantastic cast made for a very compelling theater experience. (Who would have thought, in L.A.?!) This concept could easily be adapted for a major movie. You should see this show now before it becomes an L.A. cult classic! It was a great way to start off our Saturday evening. I'm definitely seeing it again.

The playwright has a good ear for catch phrases and is able to quickly delineate characters through witty dialogue. However, the writing is uneven and lacks a strong dramatic/comedic arc: it leaves one with the feeling that it's merely a series of sketches and scenes. The acting, too, was inconsistent. It appears that all the roles are double cast and the acting quality at each performance would appear to vary widely. The director and technical staff did a great job in bringing the script to life, however. All in all, an enjoyable evening of Equity Waiver theatre. And, at your price, a bargain!
