Description
This collection of short works, assembled in honor of the Curious Theatre Branch's 20th birthday, stacks a totem pole on top of a mile marker; a whopping nine plays by nine writers are showcased. The pieces—by Matthew Wilson, Beau O' Reilly, Scott T. Barsotti, Shawn Reddy, Jenny Magnus, Jayita Bhattacharya, Matt Rieger, Bryn Magnus, and Matt Test—run the gamut, from vignette to monologue to performance-art fugue, but share in the exaltation of language as a self-sufficient narrative engine that's always been this company's hallmark. Perhaps accidentally, they also speak to one another, echoing the elliptical synergy that's kept the Curious collective rolling all these years. The lineup varies nightly; call or visit curioustheatrebranch.org for details.—BN
