A review by luminesse
Stage Kiss by Sarah Ruhl

3.0

I enjoyed this playful, theatrical play. When I say theatrical, I mean (and this is very characteristic of Sarah Ruhl) it reads like an A-B acting exercise where you have a script of lines wholly open to interpretation. There is a lot of leeway in this script and I think for this one it works well. Lots of opportunity for broad comedy and the deepest of intimate confessions and the psychological mythologies, the outing of the subconscious, that are practically unique to Ruhl's plays.
