My overall impression
From the LAist-
“Wallace’s stark and cerebral short story Good Old Neon comes to life as Glint through a stage adaptation by Ian Forester. Staying true to Wallace’s text, Glint channels a suicide narrative that stands as an ironic memoir to the recently deceased author. Forester’s dramatic performance is truly outstanding. In the role of Neal he is precise, provocative, and wonderfully satisfying as he gingerly conveys the play’s most beautiful lines, touching gestures, and intense moments. Forester reaches out for the curiosity of the audience, singularly piercing every individual in attendance. Adam Smith’s excellent, thoughtful direction bolstered by simple, but ethereal lighting design by Andrew Hungerford gives a perfect context for this transportive work. Glint is playing through June 20 at Actor’s Circle Theatre or Lounge Theatre.”
