Berko review: OUR COUNTRY'S GOOD @ Seat of the Pants Productions
by Roy Berko 08 Aug '22

08 Aug '22

*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••Capsule judgment: OUR COUNTRY’S GOOD exposes the viewer to a part of history not well known to many. The overly-long script gets a creditable staging by Seats of the Pants Productions. It is worth the sit for anyone interested in probing theater.
