"A wonderful audio recording from LATW. The performances are outrageous and touching. A great look at modern American mental health and what truly makes us sane. "

    " Quite funny, extremely 1970s New York, and darker than I realized. I felt like it ended abruptly--I expected at least one more scene. "
