Everyone has different taste. I found it to be one of the funniest shows of the season. (Second to Forbidden Broadway of course) If you want to laugh and you love farce you will have a great time. I LOVED IT. Tickets: http://www.ishedead.com
I absolutely loved this show. It is hilarious from start to finish.

It used to be weekends, now it's more Saturday nights that are good houses. Don't worry about the cast. I pop in almost every night to see the end of Act I and Act II, and the cast always gives their all.
Side question: Marin Mazzie was in the audience tonight. I thought she was supposed to be in London?
I killed the boss, you don't think they're gonna fire me over a thing like that!!!!
I saw the show tonight. Orchestra seemed pretty full. I was in the mezz and all the people in the mezz would probably fill one row, plus another 1/3. The energy was all there though. Norbert was just fantastic.
I thought it was a lot of fun and Norbert was amazing, but I did think after a while that the joke could not sustain itself. Still, I laughed harder at times than I have at any other show this season. Go see it!
I saw it on Saturday night--looked sold out to me. I was sitting in the balcony and every seat was taken. A few people left in the middle of act 1, but that was because somebody threw up... smelled awful.
The show wasn't really funny to me until towards the end of the second (third) act. It was alright before that--but that's when I really started laughing out loud, and I'd say it was one of the funniest moments in theater I've seen.

Saw this show Tuesday night - - - it was almost full. Norbert was fantastic, the man next to me was laughing so much and so loudly he was making me nuts. I really LOVED this show.
I'm so glad that it's been getting mostly full houses. I loved it. The material was mediocre, but the actors were amazing. It was a great farce, and I'd love to go back to see it again.
