Some complain that Faye Driscoll's pieces are too friendly, too eager to please, too cute, too shaggy. I say, relax; if you let them do what they're trying to do, they can be marvelous. This is the last part of Driscoll's Thank You for Coming trilogy, which has examined social interactions (including not least those between performers and audience). In this final installment, Driscoll constructs a world upheld by pulleys, ropes, and people acting as counterweights, dramatizing the effects of the presence and absence of others. The Tuesday and Wednesday shows are previews, at which the audience will have some input into the formulation of the piece.
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: Pharmacie Bar + Kitchen for cocktails and food to absorb them.
