Hi everyone,
Has anyone had a chance to check out The Gospel According to Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens, and Count Leo Tolstoy: Discord? If so, what are your thoughts? I don't know much about the production, but I love Charles Dickens beyond words, so anything that has to do with him piques my interest. Is the production worth seeing?
Thanks!

I saw a production in Philadelphia earlier this summer. It's an entertaining and often funny 90-minute play. I found some of the humor a little tired and felt like the play didn't push as far as it could on certain topics; I also thought it occasionally struggled to seem more profound than it is. Don't go in expecting a realistic or fact-based depiction of the three characters. Overall, I'd say I recommend it with reservations.
