Improv is still a risk worth taking
Sometimes improv moves along quickly and keeps you laughing the whole show, sometimes it just doesn't. A few unexpected funny twists, but many meandering scenes didn't move the plot along, I think they just had an off night. A few actresses were covered up by the background music, so sit close and centered.

Great script, amazing actors, perfect direction.
I am stingy with my rankings of 5, but this one deserved it, not just for the Minnesota accents. Must see!

Proud to be a Twin City-zien
A great storytelling with audio and video clips reflecting the stupid cruelty of Metro Surge. Keep telling the tales of truth, Republicans will face their well-deserved karma eventually.

Confusing but entertaining
I hope they publish the lyrics eventually, I know there were some classic puns in there. I heeded a previous reviewer and sat far from the orchestra for better sound. The cast mostly sang forward which helped with lip-reading. I think I missed some lines with back-story. I had a friend who used to keep her horse's pickled nuts in a jar on a shelf, Pat would have liked this show!

Cut short
It felt like they took a 2-hour show and crammed the second hour into 5 minutes. I really enjoyed the first 90%, but the shooting reactions were not believable. Maybe add something to convey that a few weeks had passed before the concluding conversations? I was ready to tip the drag acts but they didn't get close enough. :-D
