This is a great play for mythological history buffs, with plenty of jokes, references, and an amusing reveal at the end that can only be described as the purest form of tragic comedy. Lovers of wordplay will appreciate some of the arguments, and the voice cast does a good job as well. As described, or forewarned, if you prefer, the play is deeply irritating and I really appreciate the effort that went into making it so.
Thanks to Robert Nagle with Personville Press for providing me with a copy in exchange for an honest review, it was very much appreciated.… (altro)
