New impression of comedy

  The first thing I thought of when I saw the title was that the show is going to be funny, but I didn't know that it's such hilarious. A lot of the moments just made me shivering on the chair, they were absolutely great. My favorite scene was the morning meeting one, the impressions of different teachers couldn't be better. I can tell that the designing crew really put a lot of efforts in mimic the teachers' language and signature actions. Other scenes were quite impressive too, such as the beginning scene, which is a fantastic demonstration of the prevailing political campaign in U.S. Just like the meeting scene, the play and the actors were just experts in mimicking different people and events. This element plays an important role that connects the audience and what's going on at the stage closely. The audience can understand the plot better while laughing crazily.
  Another good thing about the play is that the props were used suitably and efficiently. Expressing the atmosphere of the scenes and very simple. The backstage staff were being very professional and adept at switching everything on the stage. I was so impressed by it because I realized how much work they had to put in during the practices.
  However, there were also some scenes that were not such appropriate, in my opinion. Well, the idea of cross-gender acting was an issue. It worked fine for some places, but I don't like it overall. It might be fun to see a male actor to perform female characteristics, but this theme lasted for over half of the show. It wasn't really presenting the strength of this form of acting but decreasing the audience's interest in the show. I believe that in quite a few scenes, cross-gender acting was really not necessary. Female characters could totally played by female actors. Take an example of the swan and alien scenes, where all of the female characters were played by boys. There were already several places like that already, so the idea was not fresh anymore, the funny part therefore did not play its role.
  Overall, the performance went well and I really liked it!
