What I liked
The concept of having two families from contrasting times was imaginative. It reminded me of Edgar Allen Poe’s The Fall of the House of Usher. The play had something eerie that did not come to fruition. The suspense lingered throughout the play. This air of suspense reminded me of Poe and Alfred Hitchcock’s work. Again, the writing was excellent.

My overall impression
My feedback is from a writer’s point of view and a dancer’s perspective regarding performers’ use of space. I do not have the experience to give feedback on the acting or directing. The play All America, written and produced by Lynn Grant Beck and directed by Michael Strauss was beautifully written. The concept of having two families from contrasting times was imaginative.
