Review:
The only magic seen at Altered Stages in this very peculiar political protest play was that it made half the audience vanish at intermission! Gil Kofman's fevered fantasy of Ashcroftian Investigative Techniques - dealing with presumed Muslim Terrorists - proved a thoroughly gratuitous exploration of S & M scenes. The energetic cast struggled valiantly with the materials, but this script should have died in Workshop. For Protest Theater: Bring back Bertolt Brecht! Or even Eric Bentley!
