Ratings and reviews

Awesome and so vital. Everyone needs to see it. The one who essentially said "If they let this in, then it must be worthless" captured it exactly. Because Liza's play expressed the truth of every man watching, the powers that be saw its true danger and shut it down. That alone proved its truth and value.
