The play has a fairly good comedy well-coordinated and actedby Antonette de Curtorim, Ben Evangelisto, Luis Bachchan as an ayurvedic doctorand comedian Michael. There is never a lull moment. Hazel has given a goodperformance and renders the Kantos well. There are a good number of solos, buta duet was badly missing. The stage setting is appealing and lightings are wellcoordinated.
