What's the word on this? Just picked up a ticket without knowing anything about it. Plenty of dates available.

It's a fantastic production that just finished its run at Steppenwolf, where I saw it twice. It was reviewed very well in Chicago, and a few people have shared their thoughts in this thread:

I saw the production early into its Chicago run, and I plan to see it again in New York. It's a very solid production, and the three actors are well-cast and giving confident performances. I'd recommend it for sure, especially at a deep TDF discount. The only thing that I'm curious about is how different the theatre configuration is here--going from a small theatre with an alley configuration in Chicago to a larger, traditional proscenium stage on Broadway. It will be interesting to see how the production adapts to a larger, more conservative space.


"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Saw this toward the end of its run in Chicago and thought it was extremely well done – all 3 actors are giving excellent performances, with Michael Cera as the stand-out for me. He really made the show. I would definitely recommend it.

I also am very curious to hear how it adapts to different staging and a bigger space.

I was sixth row orchestra, dead center. Probably the best TDF seat I've ever had.
