Love and Information is unusual for a Fringe Festival, a work by major British playwright Caryl Churchill (Cloud Nine; Top Girls) that’s been produced by theaters in London and New York since 2011.
While I enjoyed the play’s humor, it was the tragic moments — each of which was startling — that gave the play its depth and made me think about it well after leaving the theater.
One of the pleasures of a Fringe Festival is being able to see interesting and original theatre that is so non-commercial that it otherwise might never see the light of day.
It’s hard to discuss Linnea Bond’s play Heard without including spoilers, which would surely diminish the experience for other audiences in the Fringe.
While the performances are reason enough to see this production, more impressive perhaps is how the message was delivered very simply, without preaching.
