Kept you thinking on your feet. In this fast paced, thrilling mystery, you’re always learning new pieces of the puzzle (even pieces you already knew). Very fast, Very fun was done in 45 minutes instead of 60.
Well done play and very good acting. Left us thinking (and still thinking days later) about its storyline and the “truth.” Only fair warning is that the show is entirely arguing, sometimes at pretty loud volumes, which may overstimulate or be distressing to viewers that are sensitive to that.
Two very skilled performers take us through an inescapable series of events that will leave you confused (in the best way) and entertained. So well written and performed! Don’t miss this show!!
Very funny, and actors clearly had a great time and get very into character. Super friendly outside of show as well. Nearly a packed theater when I went to see it, which was on a weekday, so consider getting advanced tickets. Only warning I’d give is the show can get loud at points while actors are arguing, so keep that in mind if you get overstimulated by loud noises. All around a fun night
