LCT recommends RAPTURE, BLISTER, BURN as a 4-Star Production, presented by the Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati through October 27.
An LCT Panelist describes the play as “An excellent ensemble of actors in a thought-provoking play examining feminist issues and ‘the one that got away.’”
Another panelist states, “This play…is a solid production with a good cast. Much like Wendy Wasserstein’s “The Heidi Chronicles”, “Rapture, Blister, Burn” follows a single female protagonist who reflects on her choices as a successful academic at the expense of having a family. There were some funny bits in all of this, especially with the hilarious lines of the twenty-something post-feminist Avery, played by Hannah Sawicki.”
A finalist for the 2013 Pulitzer Prize, the play was written by Gina Gionfriddo. It is making its regional premier here in Cincinnati and is directed by D. Lynn Meyers. Contact www.ensemblecincinnati.org for tickets and more information about the production.
