Ladies At the Alamo - a Microcosm of the Politics of Theatre,
By Brien Hagan (New York City) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ladies at the Alamo (A Play in Two Acts) (Paperback)
What is unique about this play is that while most plays take a controversial look at an aspect of society outside of the theatre, here the criticism is being mirrored back into the world of theatre, where a clever juxtapositioning of the performance and the back of the house is taking place. Using this device, the reader (and audience) is unclear what is most important in the world of theatre, the performance, or the power of nepotism etc.. Each character has a seperate reason for being involved in the theatre, be it for fame, love, popularity etc. and it is powerful especially as an artist to see these characters come clean and perhaps even save themselves from being devoured by the theatre by actually admitting their agendas to themselves and the rest of the cast.
