AdA: AUTHOR DIRECTING AUTHOR is a collaboration of three authors directing the works of each other. The participants this year are Neil LaBute, Marco Calvani, and Marta Buchaca. There are several themes between the three plays. You have boss/employee (Gabby Beans and Margaret Colin), political rivals (Dalia Davi and Victor Slezak) and father/daughter (Richard Kind and Gia Crovatin). Each play has crisp dialogue between two extraordinary actors; each play has plot twists that keep you highly engaged; and each play deals with perception, power, and truth in relationships. Who is good and who is evil is a lurking theme that will haunt you long after watching the performances. The past always seems to be crawling into the future like a snake ready to bite. Crisp dialogue and excellent direction makes this a must see.
