Alas, I was SO looking forward to this, only to be sorely letdown. The play feigns that it's a psychological thriller, only to tidy up and resolve all the ominous plot points by the play's end. Unfortunately, this is yet another "white people problem" play.

The performances are mostly strong, with the exception of the child actor, who was having line troubles during the first preview. I know Atlantic is capable of so much more, or so I thought. It's such a shame that a seemingly interesting premise went to waste.

Anyone else get a chance to catch this?
