 Of the updated 2006 version , Variety stated that " .. the breezy one @-@ hour show is equal parts adorable and creepy , hilarious and unsettling , making it way more compelling than your average holiday entertainment . " The Boston Globe also reviewed the 2006 edition of the play , and its review spent more time giving background on some of the cast and crew , particularly writer Kyle Jarrow , stating that " .. Jarrow has created a musical about L. Ron Hubbard that is , in its own sardonic way , much more funny and touching than any of Cruise 's diatribes against Ritalin . " The New York Sun described the production as an : " ingenious musical account of L. Ron Hubbard 's life and times " , and compared the discomfort produced by watching the piece to that produced by the 2006 documentary Jesus Camp .
