Before the play began, in lieu of one of those pre-recorded announcements enumerating various prohibitions (eating, drinking, talking) and exhortations (enjoy!), he addressed the audience himself, admitting that he detests these sorts of recordings, and that he often finds himself wondering whether he should take an important call if the play he's watching isn't worth his attention. The audience's attention during the 90-minute play that followed spoke for itself – everyone was positively riveted. No one could ever accuse him of treading lightly over difficult subject matter. He engaged complex moral questions about the social/economic inequities we witness daily and the associated costs (psychological and otherwise) of maintaining the status quo, of turning a blind eye and a deaf ear to other people’s suffering. He doesn't succumb to preachy, didactic blathering, but rather probes deeply into one man's tortured psyche, stripping bare his pretensions. It was truly a remarkable theatrical performance. So yes, everyone should see "The Fever"...!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31976010.post-71606691904269950072007-01-30T15:08:00.000-08:002007-01-30T15:08:00.000-08:00Tengo ganas de irme a Nueva York para verlo.
