A Difference in Critical Opinion

It is not easy to write a review about a show you both liked and didn't care for. The Great Ducknik and The Great Plotnik differed about this one. Plottie found it fascinating, while the Duck did not cotton to being screamed at for two hours. But there is a lot there. You can read the San Francisco Theater Blog review of "The Last Cargo Cult" here.

Fortunately, the performer is doing two shows in repertory, and we get to see the second show, called "The Agony and Ecstacy of Steve Jobs" in ten days. The more Plotnik thinks about last night's performance, the more excited he is to see the next show. It's the kind of thing that sticks with you.

And this show violates most of the monologue rules, which Plotnik likes too. However, Duck has already announced Plotnik can go to the next show by himself or take somebody else. She had enough last night.

That next show should be a doozy.
