Review: THE COMEUPPANCE at Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company

Themes of identity, bonding, loss, self-realization and especially death permeate the numerous layers of Brandon Jacobs-Jenkins’ thought-provoking play The Comeuppance. This penetrating work explores so many layers that it is best to let the experience take you where it will. The high school reunion of five characters (with a sixth character often referred to and heard on a cell phone) based on experiences of the playwright himself (who grew up in Prince George’s County, Maryland) has a distinct, edgy feeling as this group of millennials celebrate, banter, reminisce, self-analyze, and even ridicule each other with equal doses of affection and recrimination.
