Why Torture Is Wrong, and the People who Love Them and Other Political Plays
Why Torture Is Wrong, and the People who Love Them and Other Political Plays | Christopher Durang
1 post | 2 read
The title play tells the story of a young woman who wakes up to find herself in bed with a man she does not know, and to whom she has apparently got married while drunk the previous night. And to make matters worse, it seems like he might be a terrorist.

Mehso-so

While I love Durang‘s absurdist tendencies, the wild direction the second half of the second act takes took me unfortunately way out of the titular play. The extra shorties he tags along are fun, though the “Hardy Boys” skit wouldn‘t really fly in today‘s climate. Now I desperately wanna read/see “Sister Mary Agnes!”
