This is weird
Well staged
Some good acting
And startling effects and sound
The concept didn't really go anywhere it was more of an allegory for me which can be applied to many aspects of modern society
Very well cast
Good girl good girl Girl perfect
Has anyone else seen it?

I saw it. I wanted to like it more than I did - when I read the synopsis I immediately thought of Thomas Eccleshare's Pastoral at the Soho Theatre a while back, which I loved, and in hindsight I wish I hadn't, because when it wasn't Pastoral, I didn't like it as much as I'd wanted to. Still, the cast were terrific, and the running time an absolute blessing, so it's worth the trip I'd say.

Liked it a lot -- smart, trenchant, terrifically well acted/directed/designed: another Theatre Upstairs winner following on from Yen and the BRILLIANT Cyprus Avenue.

I also enjoyed this. Well acted and certainly an allegory - but it's a challenge teasing out the different elements. Some great lines in it (usually delivered out of the blue). "I've been taking the cat's Prozac" and (very fitting for this Board) "man cannot listen to show tunes alone"!
