I agree wholeheartedly with those who have commented on this misguided at best, hostile at worst, review of this production. It seems to me, and I too was at the same performance, that the reviewer has something of an ax to grind, as it does not appear that she is talking about the actual production at all. Perhaps 'deconstruct' the one word she used that does have some resemblence to the production - is the operative one here, as that is exactly what the play and its characters call for. The fragmented nature of all its parts and layers held me until the end, when if only for a brief moment, those very delicate edges seemed to brush up against each other. Well that is the genius of Lanford Wilson's writing, and in fact was the experience I encountered at this production. Go see it!
