What I liked

I loved the very idea of this story. I loved the actors, who were perfectly cast. I loved the music & the band. I loved the perfect timing & the humor in the play. I loved the use of dance & song to push the plot. Every actor was talented as a dancer & vocalist. I loved the way each character was brought to life as truly human. I loved the idea of acceptance, love & redemption for Karen & her crazy sister. I loved the ending so much I don’t want to ruin it for anyone about to see this play.

What I didn't like

Everything worked perfectly for me.

My overall impression

First off, this was an obscure blast from the past for me. I kinda’ remember the story of Karen, the astronaut, driving cross country wearing a diaper, attempting to kidnap her lover’s new GF. Or something like that, but diapers were involved. My lovely client, Dagney Kerr, played Karen & with Dagney’s starring & the plot line a mystery, I had to see this play. What an incredible wild ride! The story moves with lightening perfect speed. The characters are brilliant & each one an odd ball in their own right. Dagney, as Karen, was so delicious & entertaining, I could not take my eyes off of her. Every actor was perfectly cast & their performances were flawless.
