Best Available

We're not going to talk about the sudden departure of our previous Artistic Director, because we want to focus on the future, not the past. The one thing we're all on the same page about it is: We Need Change. Change that builds on the remarkable legacy of our institution.

It's just like the Ancient Blessing, May You Live In Interesting Times.

    Exquisitely crafted and profoundly depressing, Best Available is filled with moments in which I found myself simultaneously laughing and cringing. It offers a harrowing yet supremely engaging tour of the failure to make any meaningful changes in the way a theatre is managed. Whether entertaining or horrifying, every word rings true.

    Fast-paced and unapologetic, this play is a scathing indictment of the pressures and pitfalls of contemporary theatre - and will make you laugh out loud even as you wince, recognizing something deeply familiar in every character and every moment.

    So incredibly of the moment that you can't help seeing yourself in there. And about a dozen other folks in your local theatre community as well. As hilarious and insightful as it is cutting, which is quite an achievement!
