Brilliant Traces

Great performances by two committed and immensely talented young actors. Go see this!... full review

Director, Nick Zayas, wonderfully creates the claustrophobic cabin where Clay Elliot's character finds his solitude broken by Riley Rose Critchlow's sudden and surprising appearance. I really enjoyed watching the unwinding of both the characters' stories and their attempts to size each other up. Both these very talented actors draw us into their struggles. We care about what happens to these two wounded characters while in the meantime we can't help laughing at life's absurd turns. Excellent direction and acting.... full review

I am not at all sold on this play, another where two characters are trapped together. They are prone to rambling confessional monologues and- as directed- yelling a lot. The good news is that Riley Rose Critchlow is absolutely breathtaking and fully believable in a really difficult role. fringeblog.webs.com... full review
