THEATER REVIEW: INTRIGUE WITH FAYE (2003) * * * (3 stars out of 4).
External link:
This new play starring Benjamin Bratt and Julianna Margulies gets a lot of credit for being innovative and different. The play incorporates video images, mostly filmed by the actors on stage, in a novel, intelligent way. But it does require a little bit of a leap of logic to buy the premise (which I won't give away, as it's not revealed until the end of the first act). And the acting seemed a little stiff. I think that's largely because the actors had to be so careful to say their lines word-for-word, since they would sometimes be incorporated with previously recorded audio or video. Still I liked the play very much, and I recommend it.
This is The Official Record.
