It was a LOT of fun. Ryan and his company did a lovely job in a very tricky space (lousy sightlines, only entrances WAY upstage, and 15 minutes to get in and out every performance - welcome to multi-event Fringe world). It was great to see this play on the boards again

Congrats! I remember being impressed by this play way back when at Blue Coyote. =)
Congrats.
I love when they have to warn Conservatives that this show is NOT for them.
I wish I could get down to DC to see it.
