Sobre IBD

Twenty-one-year-old It-Girl Abby and her plucky best friend, Clea, embark on a spur-of-the-moment revenge trip to London - Abby, in pursuit of the young novelist who has cannibalized her in his literary debut and Clea desperately seeking Madonna. '... Brooke Berman's delicious literary comedy ... Twisted obsession is just one of the themes that Berman navigates with skill and humor in this sharp satire. In addition, her eloquent, self-aware characters mull over issues of hero-worship and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, as it relates to fact and fiction: Seeing oneself refracted in a novel can lead to an identity crisis for the subject ... Berman's tale, which wriggles between past, present and the sub-Nabokovian world of the book ... this hip skewering of sexual and literary politics is more than just a pose.' -David Cote, Time Out New York

  • Mississippi Goddamn
    Jonathan Norton
       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights. Some have them for loud gunshots.  Some for smoke.   MISSISSIPPI GODDAMN, a new play by Jonathan Norton should have one for intensity.   Granted, anyone attending a play about civil rights pioneer Medgar Evers set in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi, should expect some strife. Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

  • Fit For A Queen
    Betty Shamieh
       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
