Nobody does good, old-fashioned pee pee poo poo humor like Aristophanes!! This play is refreshing and hilarious. I am always impressed by Aristophanes' ability to pair salacious comedy with thought provoking themes.

I admit I had high hopes for this after reading Lysistrata. It started out alright, the jokes were funny and I was interested enough in the plot. But you know, after about twenty dick and fart jokes, they get kind of dull. I think Aristophanes would disagree, but it was just a bit much. It would've been much better had the play been much shorter, but it just kept dragging on and on and I was just done at the end.
