A Little Lamb

Recommended by

  • Paul Donnelly: A Little Lamb

    An enigmatic and seductive conversation that remains mysterious from beginning to end. The interaction between Leslie and Scaar leads to questioning the value of language and the nature of connection. As our understanding of Leslie's "rehabilitation" progresses from the benign to the menacing the suggestion of a repressive state and Scaar's role in it begins to emerge. This is a darkly intriguing work throughout.

    Life glimpsed through a key-hole. Like Degas, Soltero-Brown is very much focused on the dynamics between men and women even when the focus seems to be on the female. He presents a private conversation without clear context in which both are suffering and not fully connecting. There's a film-noir aspect in its depression, femme fatale, cynical male hero. But is it not the two working through an episode together? Read it for yourself.

    Sometimes it's good to be kept in the dark. Such is the experience with "A Little Lamb," as we're privy to a conversation that at first seems relegated to obscurity. As it unfolds, however, more is revealed and yet, perhaps, more is obscured. We're left to draw our own conclusions about just what is going on, which is quite thrilling. The play probes, explores, feints, and parries as it twists its way through the labyrinth that seems to be self created. Or is it? Draw your own conclusions as you read and experience this intriguing one act.
