Anyone seen this yet? It's playing at 2nd Stage for a brief run. Looks kinda cool.

I saw a production at the George St. Playhouse a couple of years ago starring Angel Desai.  It's quirky, often fun and even informative.  Worth a look.

This is a rental production and has nothing to do with 2ST.

And/or read the NYC reviews on Show-Score.

Huh. I just checked out the show-score ratings and I'm surprised. I was raving about this three years ago when I saw it in Seattle. It was very impressive, inventive, and non-traditional. I loved Val. Wondering now if it's changed, if my tastes have evolved so I wouldn't like it as much, or if I just disagree with those giving it a low score. Alas, I can't find out since it started playing in NY after my last trip. I was disappointed to see that.

Any recent reports on this? I have a $55.00 discount code and wondering if it's worth it.

I realize it's not associated with 2nd Stage, but it is using their space, which seems odd that 2nd doesn't have any summer programming. 

It looks cool, and I love a "multi-media" production, so I think I'll give it a look. The tickets are pretty expensive, but I'm sure there is a rush or TDF.

Saw this in Boston a year or two ago and absolutely loved it.  Highly recommend!

I've seen the commercial for it on youtube and absolutely loved the part of the song they played.  Hows the music overall?

I just saw this tonight and LOVED it. It wasn't at all what I expected.  It was very creative and unique from everything else out there.  The music was great!
