Lost Lake

This is the second thing I’ve recently gone into blind, just on the strength of the creative team, and I wasn’t disappointed. The play is written by the author of Proof and it stars Traci Thoms (of RENT and Wonderfalls, among many other things; she’s got the greatest “Are you kidding me?” bitchface the stage has ever seen). Now, if you don’t like the “two people on stage slowly revealing their secrets amongst wit, angst and snark” genre of theater, you’ll hate this, but it’s a very good example of that genre if you like it. Also, the set and lighting design are beautiful (and there’s one REALLY good set change that you’ll know when you see).

I don't want to say anything else--unlike the Times review, which I read after seeing it, and felt gave too much away--but if you're in NYC and a fan of the genre, see this.
