I am not sure why the reviews are raving about this play. There is no stage!! Wow..... The actors are in the audience....amazing...but in the end, this was fairly conventional and the audience involvement remained minimal. Annoyingly, the smugness of the writer/main protagonist of this play had infected the audience and the whole thing stank of middle-class "Are we not oh-so-clever to be in this very original production". Manipulations of lights and sounds to control the audience's behaviour during "breaks" gave you a feel of psychology student experience. In the end, the blurb about this play was the best thing and asked some interesting questions. The play certainly did not answer them.
