Review: CRAVE at Intiman Theater
CRAVE, Sarah Kane’s stylistic one-act play, is an uncompromising plunge into the raw, chaotic landscape of human emotion. Now performing at Intiman Theater, this is a 55-minute concept piece that seems to revel in its own disarray. In true avant‐garde fashion, the play introduces us to four enigmatic characters–A (Lathrop Walker), B (Christopher Morson), C (Marya Sea Kaminski), and M (Alexandra Tavares)–whose disjointed, abstract musings recall the erratic pulse of late 90s beat poetry. Their relationships remain a mystery, their interactions sparse, each figure channeling a distinct, seething rage that resonates deeply with our current socio-political climate.

Review: THE LAST FIVE YEARS from ACT And The 5th Avenue Theatre
Dear Readers, if you’re not familiar with the Jason Robert Brown love story, “The Last Five Years” currently being offered from ACT and The 5th Avenue Theatre, you could get a bit confused watching it. So be sure to read on to avoid confusion. But for myself, I’ve seen it a few different times. I’ve seen it with a larger cast than just the normal two people, I’ve seen a production that chose to change the intent of the breakup, and, of course, I’ve seen the movie. But the story isn’t what confused me in this production. No, my confusion came from trying to convince myself that these two people were now or ever in love. No chemistry. But we’ll touch on that more later as well.
