Almost as good as being there...

I never got to see this play live. This is the next best thing. I'm very glad I purchased this title. The story is compelling and very well written. I've read plays before, but this stars the original Tony award winning cast. Great way to spend 3 hours. Listening to a little bit of culture.

Wrenching

Superbly done but hold on to your heart. It will take you to your emotional limits. I endured it for the sake of art.

outstanding

What a wonderful performance, each one of the performers is at the top of their game.

Great entertainment!

I didn't know what to expect on a 2 hour audible
It was like being at a live performance
all of the narrators did such a great job
Bravo
I hope there are more like this!!!!!

Loved the @&$?ing story

This is a gripping story of real world, real family dynamics enhanced by the ensemble cast format. The story encompasses circumstances that most of us who don't live in a make believe world can relate too. The dialogue supports the story that is being told with @&$?ing realism and conversational accuracy.
