"Director Gabriella Bird is on fine form, reigning in the excesses of the performers to keep a delicate balance of structure and spontaneity throughout. Her assured, confident hand is most easily seen in a moment later in the show where the performers, as themselves, address Ghazi-Torbati’s reservations about the show. While the most clearly staged and rehearsed part of the evening, this scene still feels wholly natural, Bird’s direction serving only to make it easier for us as an audience to digest."
