The Spoils vs. Something Rotten Question about Jesse Eisenberg

I love Jesse Eisenberg as a film actor. How is he on stage? I'm asking because I'm curious about The Spoils. Has anyone seen his other plays? And would you say "definitely see him"?

Or should I give my last slot for an upcoming trip to Something Rotten?

Thanks in advance for your answers!

I can't comment on which play to choose, having seen neither. But I enjoyed Eisenberg's performance in The Revisionist. He's not on my very short must-see list (e.g., Mark Rylance and Geoffrey Rush), and I don't know how much range he has, but since he wrote the Revisionist role for himself he was a perfect fit. I would expect the same from The Spoils.

I can't comment on his performance, but having read The Revisionist I would love to see his new play.
