Work Me, Lord

by Rebecca Kane

A pair of sisters face car trouble on their way out of Woodstock as one has an urgent audition the next day. They want to rehearse, but the younger keeps getting distracted by the musical memories of the past few days. As the sky gets dark, the distractions soon seem to be about far more than the music.

Work Me, Lord

    I really enjoyed this piece! The interaction between the two main characters was engaging, and I loved the conflict between the classical demands of ballet and the "modern" music of the festival. A good contrast is established in terms of what's going on in the two characters' lives. An effective narrative. This piece would be excellent to see staged and any festival would be enriched by making it part of their schedule.

    What I love about Kane's work is her facility with natural, easy dialogue, and how clear the relationships are because of it. Sisters Lauren and Jocelyn's predicament leads to an all-points-hit conversation that only people who know each other well, can have, and believably so in the span of fifteen minutes. Each of their stories is sprinkled with facts, history, and personal choices, which avoids the obvious exposition & gives us interesting, separate siblings whose futures I'm now invested in.
