My overall impression
Z K Lowenfels’ debut play “Sewer Rats at Sea” is as poised, elegant, and whimsical as its extravagant yacht setting, but Z K shines a light through the vapid luxury the characters are surrounded by and gets to the heart of what happens when a Boy likes a Girl…and whether or not a Girl lets herself like a Boy back. The play is sharp, incredibly well written and performed, with stunning performances from Lauren Marie and Mike Rosenbaum as they navigate effortlessly through the written word, turning their characters’ inner whims, wishes, secrets, and seductions into poetic meanderings as the Boy tries to woo the Girl and the Girl tries desperately not to be wooed. Plus, I dare say, the banter can be quite funny and not to forget Cameron Miller, whose performance is an incredible delight as “you have to watch the play and find out who he is” – but yeah, in other words, I definitely recommend!
