This is my review, just in case it won't appear on the main site for reasons of space:
4 stars
This play about a divorcing couple, between whom - literally speaking - a bomb goes off, is full of witty lines, twists and turns and very funny moments, brought to the stage by brilliant comedy actors. Set in New Orleans, the characters' countries of origin are reflected in their various accents. Judging from the laughter coming from the audience, all those negative reviews in some papers seem completely out of line. But isn’t everybody a critic these days?
And to those people who think this is the "worst play they have seen in years" and so on and so forth: Go ahead, write your own plays, and if they are good enough to start with they may be accepted for performance onstage. Then let's see how you fare. Anybody thinking up a plot already?
I am not going to change my mind about this play. It was light-hearted with lots of laughs, nothing more and nothing less, and the actors had a lot of fun doing this onstage. I had a great time seeing it.
