It's not terribly "mature", but it is smartly written, which is a hard find these days.

And it is hilarious. Truly laugh out loud, lose your breath funny.

I can't imagine you forgot everything you were told in the last thread where you asked the same thing.

I'm with Lizzie on this one... If you forgot everything from your exact same post about this yesterday, the show is probably too complex for you to understand and you should not dumb down the audience with your presence.

Harsh.

And FYI the 7th is today. Its a little late to ask for opinions if your probably on the way to theatre already.

Maybe she meant Feb. 7th?

I saw the Chicago production a few months ago and thought it was terrific. The cast was younger than the New York cast and they brought a certain freshness to the humor. You should enjoy it.

I saw it back in August, and loved every minute of it. There have been a couple of cast replacements since I saw it, but I'm sure the production is up to par.

I saw it. I went in with the attitude that I wouldn't really like it. I was wrong...it was entertaining...a little show with a big heart!
