In ANGST, Spencer Weitzel rocks his anybody character, hounded by self-doubts and anxiety--ably portrayed onstage by Theo Fay--all over the theater and deep into our heads. At one time or another, we've all heard a defeatist interior voice tell us, "that won't work, that's stupid, no one will like it," and stop us cold before we try.
