What I liked

What I didn't like

NOTHING

My overall impression

I had the pleasure of experiencing the dramas of two Sam Shepard plays directed by Harrison James of Girl Trip productions. Each featured actor Adam Navas in the male lead. In Cowboy Mouth the female actor was Julia Manis, while Savage Love was a solo performance by Adam.

Accompanying the actors were the audacious dancers Sarah Polednak and Kandace Hurdle. Sarah was stunning and sexy in Cowboy Mouth, while subdued and almost mournful in Savage Love. This range of ability from yoga to ballet was vital to the two extremes of both one-acts.

Adam revealed vigor and great tension in Cowboy Mouth as well as an angry solo expression extraordinaire on the drums. In contrast he played a soulful, despairing character in Savage Love.

These performances were truly a credit to the genius of Sam Shepard.
