Paper Trails

A wonderful way to spend a half-hour! A nice through-line of "legacy" connects these three pieces; first the personal, then the familial, and finally the national. Three markedly different ways to explore identity, accountability, and history.

A trio of intelligently-written short plays, each about reflection on a character's personal, work, or familial history and its impact upon the present.... full review

Three wildly different short plays that still have much in common beyond the common themes of identity, history and paper. Namely: tight direction, great grounded acting, incisive writing with beautiful touches of comedy and even melancholy throughout. A brisk, deep, thought-provoking slate of plays.... full review
