Away??

Has anyone out there in ITA website-land seen the Black Swan production of Away which is on at present? I'm hearing opinions that concern me and so was wondering if they are the consensus.
My concern was heightened when Bon Wanks (damn spellcheck!!) did a review in the West in which he virtually just ran through the storyline.
Feedback would be appreciated - for and against.

Thanks for that Paula. It was the "played for laughs" bit that was concerning me. I haven't seen this production and I find it hard to imagine how some of the more poignant scenes could be done this way. However, if it worked for the audience in general (and you in particular I assume), then that is great.
Any other opinions?
