Meditating on the meaning of forgiveness, the muddiness of memory in the face of trauma, poverty, visions, the desperation behind trying to break the cycle of abusive fatherhood. What doesn't FRESNO by Augusto Amador pack into its pages? And yet, there is not an ounce of fat on this marvel of a play. Every movement is necessary, every action filled with the weight struggles over years trapped in the brutal cycle of poverty. But more, there is love that exists in this play. Love that warps, love that heals, love that gives a way forward, love that burns. A marvel.
