SO FUN! don't miss it. I am a huge fan of action movies translated to the stage on low-budgets and this didn't disappoint. It knows EXACTLY what it is- and the camp is hilarious. Very funny performances make this smart and charming piece shine!...

Rambling and unfunny - this show added nothing to my understanding of the human race, let alone celebrity - probably due to its hap hazard structure (the author mentioned that he had just thrown the show together ) the author portrays himself as the kind of individual who disses his wife without supplying a reason and complains about a star who won't get off his deathbed to give him an autograph.

A fast paced exploration of the dynamics of the relationship between
the lover and the loved one who loves another, complicated by the
fact that the lover is the writer and the other his lead actress. That each of the variations is derived from the same scene from Chekhov is an
oversimplification as there is little of the repetitiveness that I expected.
Instead there is a slow accretion of knowledge as more is revealed about
each character.

The Viola Mountain Door Company
Who said door makin' was simple and the people who make 'em simple minded? Who ever said that never spent a day at The Viola Mountain Door Co. Deep in the hills stands a common looking door factory, full of men and women who are decidedly uncommon.
THE FEVER by Wallace Shawn
In this new version, take a striking look at how someone from the 1% views the world, and what happens when he confronts the morality of his position.
