Time travel temptations, from “Back to the Future” to contemporary stories such as “This Time Tumoro”, is the most personally most powerful.
Who among us, would not want to improve our lives and would like to make our worst mistakes before?
More than 60 gripping minutes, “A number” by Carryl Churchill surrounds a father, who tries to reset his family and resume his life, and sons – “one of them”, all the same With DNA – who pay for that fresh start.
Two crows theater company, a small, off-season spring green company with American players theater actors, is a prediction for scripts. The premiere of the choice of “A number” in 2002 during a public debate about cloning’s morality, underlines it.
Directed by DA Day Bettest with subtlety and skill, Churchill’s play runs in the touchstone theater in APT through March 2.
The “A number” is one-handed, which is located in a quietly elegant, Clostrophobic London living room designed by Doug Donon. A sweater-clad David Daniel, Edel Professor Father’s Shades “In”evidence,
Marcus Trusinsky, Left, and David Daniel played the role of father and son in “A number” by Carryl Churchill built by two crows theaters.
Churchill’s script is economical. We never hear their name, or word “cloning”. Nobody talks about the house, swimming directly towards “whisi” and “Voos”. Who are we, if not unique?
“I am just one copy. I am not real, ”the son says. “I’m just finishing him again.”
Why remake the same child, and give him the same name? The answer is tucking in the very wallpaper of the room, a quotation of the father printed in the block type: “You are just what I wanted.” (Incredibly, it seems just to emerge at this time that Daniel Line saves. Theater magic!)
One of the founders of the two crows, Trusinsky, leads from amazed fear to a righteous anger in a gentle attraction because he is a symbol of one after one of these duplicate sons. He rejuvenates as his father, refers to repetition as “things” or his property, insisting, “I think we will find that they are people.”
Daug Donon designed the set for the “A number” of the two crows theater, directed by de -day battest and characteristics Marcus Trusinsky, left, and David Daniel.
The direction of the battest adjusts stress efficiently because the play moves forward, bending into the frightening shade that surrounds the father’s muted living space. (Lee Bryan’s lighting design seems to be absolutely creepy.) These characters are related to violence and misuse relations.
“A number” is called a morality drama and a fictitious story, which questions the cost of progress. Twenty years after its premiere, it relates to questions about stem cells, artificial intelligence and identity.
In short, it is a deep, brief drama to catch it before it goes. Heaven knows, there is not a reset button in real life.
