It is unsettling, disturbing, deeply weird, surreal and effective, even if I can’t always explain how it is those things. It is fascinating.

It is a workmanlike production that trusts in the uniqueness of its story and some quality performances by a cast of capable professionals, to be solid entertainment. It is respectful and reasonably enjoyable.

This takes aim at class, culture and race in a lively, unsubtle, pull-no-punches kind of way. It also does many other things, some of them very strange. It is extremely entertaining.

A standalone entry that doesn’t really further the plot of the show in any way, almost like it was designed to appeal to audiences who have never seen the show.
