It would be better suited as a TED Talk ... as it is now, it is muddled by a constant confusion of what it aims to be: part one-woman autobiography, part examination of policy and government, and part diatribe against societal ills that have pervaded history.
I very much loathed this play, but understand that I am in the vast minority in that opinion. I was extremely put off by Schrek as a performer (as well as the hodgepodge nature in which the "play" is constructed), but would be interested in seeing how the tour (and future productions) changes with a different actress. Without sweeping alterations to the text, I fail to see how the text works with another actress (it's all about Shreck's personal experiences and family trauma), but would so appreciate a performer who wouldn't be so precious in the contrived emotional breaks in the play. |
