What a Waste of 3 hours, Jun 04, 2011
reviewer: Francine from Mill Valley, CA
While the performances were fine/good, the story was nothing more than a way for Mark Ryland to go give several monologues.

There was nothing really interesting about the characters and who were content with their uninspiring drug-motivated lives.

Most characters were shallow, undeveloped, and I truly couldn't care if they lived or died by the end.

Perhaps one of the more unmemorable plays for my sensibilities. I prefer plays with far more depth, development of characters and desire to see them evolve or devolve, especially in a 3 hour performance.

I am really unsure what the big deal was about this play. From the lackluster applause at the end of the performance I saw, I am thinking I was not alone.

harrassment, Jun 11, 2011
reviewer: Nyc lover from Mississippi
I could not enjoy this play because of the rudeness of the management and ushers. I have never been treated so badly in all of my life. I felt I was being threatened by Mafia because of a lie told them by some attendants about disturbing them by opening my bag of M%M's, that were sold to me by theater. This is BEFORE play started. Take my word for it, don't go to that theater. It is scary!

Transcendentally Good., Jul 13, 2011
reviewer: Daniel Coo from Bradford, ON Canada
This is a great production of a great play. Through some kind of magic, playwright and cast and crew have squeezed the entire contemporary consciousness of a nation into a single play. You might wonder how the culture that gave us Shakespeare also gave us Benny Hill, or how The News of the World flourished when The Times, Telegraph and The Guardian were also available. Some of the answers are here in Jerusalem. This production will join the ranks of other milestones in modern theatre like The Cherry Orchard (with which it shares more than a few themes) A Streetcar Named Desire, Look Back in Anger, and the work of Havel, Stoppard and Fugard. Unforgettable theatre.
