I was totally engrossed. The acting is wonderful and the cast and the script great. I even had a tear in my eye on two occasions with the authenticity of the emotion portrayed. Well worth seeing if you have any interest in WW2 on any level.

This play was superb in every respect: the script, the acting, the staging. I haven't been so mesmerized by a topic in years and am pressuring my friends to catch whatever performances they can get tickets for.

The play was excellent , the acting very good and all three of us enjoyed the performance. I think our friend will be a new convert to ThePark Theatre. However we were unable to sit together as my friend was unable to sit in the back row of the circle. She needs a walking stick but I thought she she would be able to manage the seat. I will know next time. However, your usher was extremely helpful and found her a single seat downstairs.
