Prima Facie

[Rod Hagen]

Did anybody here see this?  It sounds like the kind of play I would hate (another one-player play? Really? How much money can broadway save much less charge?). Nevertheless, she’s a remarkable actress.

How was it?  How was she?

I saw it last week...taken by a reviewer friend, as I didn't want to pay. LOL  It's a pretty powerful piece. The 100 minutes flew by, and the outcome is pretty devastating. The women in the audience around us were particularly engaged...a play about sexual assault is never a gentle experience. the outcome was predictable...they'd set it up from the get go...but still a complicated situation. She gives a real tour-de-force. The entire body/spirit/demeanor alteration is pretty extraordinary and I don't know how she does it 8 times a week.

It's a brilliant show.

Seeing it again tomorrow night.
