    I usually don't like storylines that have been updated and taken out of their original time period. However, there was something about this one. Maybe because it was set in a future future that is foreign to us. Anyway, the point is is that it somewhat exceeded my expectations.

    Thomas Middleton gets well done here. Just remembered Christopher Eccleston from Dr. Who was one of the main characters. Great fun, I thought, and enjoyed Eddie and Derek very much.

    I performed in the stage version at UofT, so I'm naturally curious.
