| I love this play (and this production) but admit it took me two viewings and a bit of internet research to fully grasp what was going on. I recommend not going in cold. There's probably something in the program (or at least I hope there is) giving some context to the goings on. But I would definitely research the play on the internet before going. | |

| Agree strongly. Once you are passing familiar with the social and political history the play covers, the plot and dialogue are astonishingly funny and to the point. But, to the casual observer, not so much. The dialogue is dense and rich, so be prepared. | |

| I'm seeing it tomorrow. The Roundabout has a guide to the play on their website that I plan to read first. | |

| My daughter did her senior honors thesis on it; she's praying this production gets broadcast! Laura |
