My review of Richard Foreman's Deep Trance Behavior in Potatoland.

For the first several minutes of the performance came the signature Foreman audience response: knowing smiles and uncomfortable giggles coupled with furrowed brows; few attendees at Foreman’s shows pretend to “understand” the work, with its densely layered philosophical references and its aversion to both narrative and character. Still, there is generally something fun about the experience. Tonight, though, the laughter died down fairly quickly, the furrowed brows accompanied more by shuffling feet than knowing smiles. Foreman was up to something different this time, and not everyone was sure they liked it.

Full review here.

My review(s) of Dan Hoyle's Tings Dey Happen and Danny Hoch's Till the Break of Dawn.

(There are a couple of ugly sentences, one of which is an outright editorial error, but my editor and I were both running on a tight deadline this time around.)
