Sobre IBD

A comedy about the Iran-Contra affair. 'Heroic ... Sharp ... Wonderfully nuts ... The antic lunacy of a Busby Berkeley routine ... Strand's Ollie North is not just the butt of the play but its suffering hero. He's like a lawbreaker out of Ibsen, maybe a little crazy but with a genuine, shining integrity.' -The Washington Post 'John Strand's THREE NIGHTS IN TEHRAN is a furiously comic take on the Iran-Contra affair ... Inherently theatrical ... A farce exploring the outer limits of American diplomatic folly ... Strand's stage version of North consciously echoes elements of Othello's overzealous passion, the hubris of Plautus's braggart soldiers and a mania for damage control reminiscent of Moliere's inadvertent clowns like Harpagon and Orgon ... THREE NIGHTS IN TEHRAN excels at presenting the havoc wreaked on linguistic means by ideological ends.' -American Theater Magazine

  • 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 ...
