The audience clapped the actors at the end of the play. It was great!

Was there anything that wasn’t so good?
Have you ever watched a show and you loved it immediately? Recently, I started watching

start watching it now!
There are things that could be better. The main action seems a bit . I think
can be disappointing. I really hope they improve this in the next season.
Unfortunately, the ending seemed quite easy to predict. I knew they were going to ,
right after the first fifteen minutes of the film.

big hit . The atmosphere was friendly and relaxed, and like the rest of the audience, I really
enjoyed the experience.
