Review: THE OTHER AMERICANS at Arena Stage

An obvious labor of love by all concerned, actor and writer John Leguizamo’s The Other Americans is an extremely well-written and highly ambitious play that delineates the tragedy of a man’s fatal flaws ripping apart his family at the seams. What begins as a seemingly quasi-amusing and highly observant portrayal of days in the life of an upward climbing mobile family, gradually transitions into an attack on cutthroat capitalism and greed. The play becomes a blistering exposé of the toxicity of unbridled machismo and arrogance, and a withering critique of the hatred and hurt that irreparably damages everyone involved in a system where fellow human beings are viewed as “the other”.
