by Neil LaBute --- Directed by Sean Derry
at Bang & Clatter
Your career as a writer is blossoming, your beautiful, young fiancee is waiting to get married - so what is your natural reaction? Well, if you're a man, it's probably to get nervous and start calling up old girlfriends. In grand LaBute fashion, this by turns outrageously funny and deadly serious portrait of the artist as a young seducer casts a truthful, hilarious light on a typical young American male as he wanders through the heart of darkness that is himself.

"It was especially hard to believe that someone as sophisticated as Laurel Johnson’s married Lindsay was still hung up on him. What did this guy have to offer her? But as in life, love and/or infatuation doesn’t always make sense. Johnson created the most complex character in the show, drawing a fine balance between a woman who has been deeply wounded and one who’s bent on revenge. She’s powerful in a scene where Lindsay tries to entrap Guy, but when she crumples and makes a quick escape, her grieving face and body language leaves a lasting impression."
