Word On The Street

Mission to Mercury

1 Nick DiPatri | 36 | engineer

"I thought it was brilliant. I love Queen and it was awesome to listen to it. It really threw you for a loop because you had an opposite perspective—you were behind the whole stage and halfway through they kinda switched around, so it was really neat."


2 Joan Trojan ageless | teacher

"Absolutely fantastic. Pig Iron did not let us down. We didn't know if the fire drill was real or not. Was it real? Did they actually get a truck to come? Well, a fire truck came. I didn't know if they were paying part of the Fire Department or what."


3 Vanessa Fenton 39 | scenic painter

"I laughed, I cried, it was better than Cats. I'm definitely a Queen fan and the show did them justice. They did Queen songs in every genre you can imagine: They did barber shop, they did an old Irish ballad for "Radio Ga Ga." Freddie Mercury would definitely approve."


Pig Iron Theatre Company's Mission to Mercury, runs through March 4, $15-$25, Mandell Theater at Drexel University, 33rd and Chestnut sts., 215-627-1883, www.pigiron.org.
