LA Weekly ’GO!’ - "cleverly satirizes many cultural touchstones" -
"Jayk Gallagher's nimble direction moves the scenes fluidly, aided by Forester's wonderfully minimalist set and Cuellar's creative lighting. Huggins, Zagoren, Adam G and Marie Lively are hilarious in their performances.
LA Times - "savages our disconnected post-millennial era" - "Zagoren and Lively are adeptly lunatic" - "Eiland is a hoot" - "a superior sitcom with a conscience."

Synopsis:
Award-winning playwright Eric Coble's biting, irreverent social satire is set in the near future. When a rare Native American performer dies at the Culture Fiesta (tm) ethnic theme-park, determined employee Henry Carson must venture into an America ravaged by global warming, marauding viruses and helicopter gunfights to capture a real Navajo to serve tourists "authentic" frybread. Between an incessantly blogging wife, a son attending school on a green screen, and a replacement Indian that's more trouble than he seems, Henry discovers the meaning of authenticity... and that sloppy joes are sexier served on the floor.
