We seldom leave a performance midway, but in this case we didn't even wait for an intermission. The ensemble is best described as an ineffectively combining superficial mysticism, faux learning and annoying self-conscious affect.
I won't put too much blame on Arts and Ideas for bringing this group of smug emoting because it was brought to New Haven by an ecumenical conference. Nevertheless, it didn't belong at A&I.
Avoid.
