I am giving it three stars because the acting was good, and the actors had to memorise so much. And they dealt with some interesting issues.
The problem was that they dealt with to many issues. A whole season of soap operas seemed to be crammed into the lives of these two couples. The result was that they were dealt with to thinly, and you don't realy care much. Also, the craectors are not likable. Finnaly, the device of frequently having the charactors talk to the audiance directly creates further distance from the action. It also seemed a bit lazy, like overrelaince on a voice over in a movie. I get that these people had trouble speaking thire minds, but I would have prefered that the playright found some other way to get at what they were feeling, even if it meant cutting out some subplots, which may not have been a bad idea anyway.

The play started out promising, but turned slow and overly long in the second / mini third act. Some clever direction, but maybe not the best over all...

The show was good, not great but enjoyable. The two woman leads were very good and held the show together. NCTC is doing some very good work and enjoy going to see their shows. Entertaining.

Mixed feelings about this production. Great set, effectively used by 4 actors giving a generally good performance. Problem really is the sprawling, over-long play that wrings you out, but leaves little to juice over later. Its never a good sign when relief sets in at the end of a play.
