Eden Theater Company Presents SCRAMBLED PORN at The Flea Theater
Eden Theater Company presents the inaugural production of Scrambled Porn by playwright/performance artist Brennen Vickery, which is an experimental play about why people build relationships only to destroy them-unearthing the fear and longing buried underneath it all. In the aftermath of their relationship, in the abyss of someone's front yard, Adam, Sam, and June try to prove why they couldn't be alone but can't stay together. At their individual mics like a busted En Vogue live set, the 'throuple' share the creation of their own suffering.

BWW Review: The Flea Presents the World Premiere of Solondz's EMMA AND MAX
There are many plays that evoke feelings and entertain and do everything that an admirable piece of theater is meant to; I cannot say, though, that these plays are as poignant or as tragically beautiful as Emma and Max: the show I was fortunate to see on its closing night. I can't remember the last time I not only stepped out of a theater in awe of what was just seen, but then brought with me the thoughts and questions that were constantly forming like a never-ending chain; this was to the moment I walked through my front door. It is so hard to come up with the perfect form of praise for everything this show is, without also thinking of how the show affects me, compares to my life and makes me question every decision made in the last twenty-four hours.
