Caught this last night. I went in being a fan of the recent films by the author, Seven Psychopaths, In Bruges, and new what type of atmosphere to expect. This play is dark, gritty, and humorous in all the wrong and right ways. One may draw comparisons to Tarintino. The performances were spectacular and really sold this show. You will be surprised at the daring themes in this play and find yourself laughing at some of the characters and lines, regardless how cynical they may be. I highly recommend this if you are into dark comedies and emotional roller coasters.
