Review by Thursday
Pirandello meets The Actor's Nightmare meets Jasper Fforde. Well-written, combining intellectual and physical comedy, although sometimes weighed down by numerous theatre, film, and pop-culture references. Some light and set changes unnecessary and distracting. Writer Gallic plays main character Corgan; all actors except Director shine. A fun, enjoyable evening of theatre.

Kitchen sink story of rape: interesting premise, questions, and betrayals, but all muddled in a tedious script that disappoints rather than disturbs. The production’s overall 6-8 level of hysteria wearies. However, the performers are committed, particularly Aime Kelly as the eye within the storm; moments of silence are fully appreciated.
