my honest to god reaction to this was oh-em-gee. Edge of my (uncomfortable bench of a) seat from the jump, a slow burn with some dips and lurches, and then a right turn thats just... i was shocked even though I think I saw it coming a bit early, since when it was obvious where this was going, a few people audibly yelled NO!

Both Lemmon and Friedman are other worldly here, but Friedman has the much harder part, and again, oh-em-gee what he does with it. If this had a long run, I'd go back to see every single set of actors I could take on these roles, because I imagine the play would be entirely different every time. Its such a living/breathing thing. And while the twists/turns/shock steals the show, even the more mundane dialogue about modern performative liberalism, about hippies vs. tech bros, is in and of itself worth the price of admission. 

Why the hell is this in a tiny theater in alphabet city with a horrible (and yes, as others have pointed out, poorly described on website) balcony area? This felt like a space converted from an old Orthodox synagogue and I accidentally ended up in the repressive women's section with the creakiest floor of all time.

If you can see this, you really must.

This has turned into a proper word-of-mouth hit and that is so exciting in a way.

Sadly, I will probably miss this yet again as it closes this week.  Any chance it comes back?

So sad I’ll be missing this, it sounds right up my alley.  I hope it comes back in some form in the future.

Any news on this going to the Helen Hayes? 
They do have website up.

I wouldn’t be suprised if it’s the Hayes. It has the same management team who was working on Forbidden Broadway so it would probably make the process an easy/er swap of the projects, internally speaking.

The website went up after the Soho Playhouse run serving the Connelly run.
