THE PLAY: Four new roommates try to conceal their true identities as aliens.

 

THE PRODUCTION: The last show this company presented was fun but sloppy (here’s my review.) This production is less ambitious, but much more polished and precise. The quartet of actors is having a great time being weird, wild and silly, but they do it with assured comic timing. The direction by Connor Sully and Mahlon Raoufi relishes the script’s absurdity with lots of off-the-wall flourishes. The tech is unremarkable, but the light cues are exact. Running time: 55 minutes

 

THE POINT: A scrappy, wacky romp into absurd farce by 4 accomplished talents.
