| I liked it for the performances, especially Harris and Pullman. The play as I recall was a little obtuse and definitely dark, lots of shocking things that will turn off some and seem too over the top for others. In between, the acting (strong throughout) is what makes it work. In somewhat standard New Group fashion, there are not a lot of people you'd want to have over to dinner (even with social distancing enforced). | |

| The presence of the Harris Madigan husband and wife combo almost forces it after the New Group Buried Child (which is also online, and excellent). | |
