On the Evolutionary Function of Shame
by D.A. Mindell
“
Engrossing, starkly funny, inventive and beautifully rendered. I saw a production of this provocative play at Columbia. Mindell nimbly keeps turning challenging questions around and around again, spiraling closer to truth. All of the characters were rendered fully dimensional and complex. I also really appreciated the centering of a pregnant trans man. Beautiful work.
