I'd see this just for the new Nellie McKay songs. Would love to see her compose a full musical. 

Hope this isn't another "All In." Big names, flimsy material, indie music hook...

Since Aubrey is the only "name" that means anything (except for a Coen Brother), I highly doubt it.

Hopeful for this one.   We just purchased tix thinking this will sell well with Aubrey and this cast/creative.

This sounds a lot like Coen's previous Atlantic effort, Almost an Evening, which was similarly three very short plays, loosely linked. I remember that show as being a pleasure, if a bit thin. F. Murray Abraham have a delightful performance as God, which has stuck with me. 

 

My prediction is that it will be perfectly enjoyable.

"Relatively Speaking" came to my mind immediately.
