"I enjoyed the show despite being in the front mezzanine and having my legs being in pain until I moved to the aisle seat in the second act. However, I think Americans don't like or care about how this dictator came to power."

It's more than that. This is a very old story, about the empowered overpowering those who put them in power in the first place. Maybe this play needed to be written by a Russian, or at least not by a British or American playwright. It's a great production but an unsurprising play. Not at all bad, but also not at all unique. It tells us nothing new.
