Description

Though we don't want to reveal too many of the particulars—the reveal of the who, what and with whom is what makes French farce worth watching—we can say this: Working with a dream cast, director Jeremy Wechsler makes a decent case for Feydeau's brand of sex comedy with a lesser-known work. Maggie Graham, an actor who seems genetically engineered for screwball, is a standout in the lead female role, while Matt Engle channels his intensity into painstakingly choreographed physical comedy. Our only quibbles are with the excruciatingly long scene changes and the quality of set construction—farce is tough on slamming doors, and on opening night, it showed.—KV
