This show has rollerskates and wheelchairs, and you'll like the people on both. Its various sketches and commentaries give the message, "Sometimes you're included, sometimes you're excluded." Most of it is simplistic, but the banana bit is nicely conceived. It's message got through to me during a monologue in which a woman harshly discerns men's whole personalities from the ways they dance.

I've seen an earlier incarnation of this wild theater romp and have had the privilege of sitting in on a rehearsal of this new incarnation. It's fun, thought-provoking, weird and sassy. I can't wait to see it again with all the bells and whistles up and rolling.--Cheryl Wade

This disabilities-centric ensemble piece is a melange of one-liner thoughts/judgments about the absurdity of the quest for perfection from the standpoint of those who are physically challenged. Unfortunately, at too many points it seemed like a rant with no particular positive counterbalanced position. After all, every culture values beauty in some way. The central thesis of beauty vs. repulsion towards the disabled wandered too often. I desperately wanted the points presented to be humorous, but it never quite reached that level. A musical interlude was pleasant, and I wished more of the production had the sensitivity presented there.
