Insightful and truly well-written review, one that really digs into how the text resonates now instead of reductively dismissing the play as (too) tied to the era.
"It's in those signs of connective tissue able to withstand even the worst flagellation — both self-induced and otherwise administered — that Mantello and his gifted cast trace a sense of outsiders finding fortifying protection in one another, no matter how much damage they inflict. And the final image of resilient sensuality, a directorial flourish not in the text, eloquently brings home that point of survival, unity and love that won't be denied. They're here, they're queer, get used to it." |
