REVIEW: In EgoPo’s Fool for Love, Intimacy Gone to Waste

The electric current that needs to run through Sam Shepard’s great play is curiously low-voltage here.

At 48th and Baltimore, a performance worthy of a Tony, and an enchanting show.

Director Eric Tucker’s production seems like an exercise in “épater la bourgeoisie” smart ass-ness.

Days later, I’m playing over scenes in my mind—loving some, scratching my head over others.

Politics and culture here are ultimately filler, suggesting but not delivering dramatic weight.

Already a byword for spectacular failure, David and Cameron find the movie of CATS even worse than expected.

Judith Ivey offers a performance of raw, unflinching honesty across the story’s increasingly bleak three hours.

This musical is as manicured as the kind of Stepfordian society the material supposedly rails against.

A conceptual misstep frustratingly dilutes and distracts from an often rewarding musical performance.

Don’t miss this superb show, which returns for a run this December!
