I really, really wanted to like this. And it does have a few moments just shy of great. Some of the music is gorgeous! But, save for Parisa Shahmir, the story as told at last night's performance was dull and uninteresting. I will return at the end of the run, hopeful.

I ushered for it Saturday. I didn’t know much about situation it was based on so thought it would be more upbeat but it reflected historical events so got very dark at end.
