by Steve Norton | Dec 5, 2025 | Reviews

by Daniel Eng | Dec 5, 2025 | Reviews

I, personally, love the idea of this show. The whole life of these characters, told through Frank is both joyous and tragic. The way they imply so much with the performances, songs and dialogue about what happened in between scenes is astounding.
