Sarah on theater

What I'm seeing lately!

A dark comedy about Roger, a middle-aged, divorced man who, after losing his job and feeling adrift in a changing world, falls down an internet rabbit hole and discovers a men’s rights activist named Angry Alan. Seduced by Alan’s online rhetoric about a gynocentric society that oppresses men, Roger finds a new sense of purpose and validation that increasingly alienates him from the women in his life and his estranged son.


★★★ ★★

John is great in this. Really impressed with the polish for a first preview. I wish that the play itself treated its subject matter with a little more nuance - it’s possible to also think of men as sympathetic people with real problems, I promise - but I think it will generally find a receptive audience.
