I’m both excited and terrified to see what a sound designer does with this! I can’t wait to see what a director with a good sense for ground plans does to create this setting (an unfinished house) which needs to be simultaneously realistic and impressionistic.
That said, the play is nuts! Marchant gets us off and running with the character descriptions! What begins as a kind of intergeneration comedy – sorta FAMILY TIES on acid – becomes increasingly yet stealthily more bizarre. And we just roll with it until there’s no turning back. Great sleight of hand!
