    Good time with Relin last night. I was pretty impressed. The lines are not easy and the actors did a good job with them, especially the actor doing C3PO. He had a lot of lines early plus having to do that C3PO cadence. The costumes were very well done, it looks like they spent some money on them. Nice mash up of Star Wars with kinda a Victorian/Steam Punk style. They also had some good stage direction using the lights and sounds to convey holograms, explosions and the final Death Star battle. The only negatives I had were that the backdrop didn't work, the raw wooden stage could use a coat of paint to make it look more professional and the chairs were uncomfortable. It looks like they brought those same old, tiny movie/stadium seats with them from their last theater space and just rearranged them.
    Strongly recommended. If I had more time I'd see it a second time.
    They're also rerunning Star Wars in 60 minutes or less March 18-19
