 THE MINUTES

CURIOUS THEATRE COMPANY: SEPT. 9 – OCT 14


 Playwright Tracy Letts’ “The Minutes” is provocative, disturbing and ultimately the most satisfying piece of theatre to have come to this reviewer’s attention in a good long while.

       Renowned director Christy Montour-Larson has envisioned and brought it to the stage with Power! 

     Her choice of the actors in this accomplished cast as well as those involved with the technical end of things, are about as good as it gets!

     Every one of the actors is a shining light in this theatre community. They are: Brian Landis Folkins, Ilasiea Gray, Kathryn Gray, William Hahn, Jim Hunt, Cajardo Lindsey, Michael McNeill, Michael Morgan, Josh Robinson, Erik Sandvold and Karen Slack.

     Stand-outs in this all-star cast are: Erik Sandvold (“ I Am My Own Wife”)`, Josh Robinson(“American Son”) and Brian Landis Folkins (“Amerikin.”) 

     Markas Henry’s realistic scenic design for the chamber is superb. 

      Richard Devin’s stunning lighting together with Jason Ducat’s crackling sound design punctuate the proceedings with intermittent jolts that heighten the suspense.

     Set in a city council meeting in a fictional small American town, this play gives us a glimpse of the horrors underlying the absurd comedy of errors present even in local politics.

       Not to be missed!!!
