FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Life and Trust
A Poodle Room on Wall Street: Life and Trust
6 / 10
Even if you offer a condemnation of the American Dream, the selling point of each is the fun stuff that the Devil offers: the surface-level Jazz Age aesthetics, the thrill of a good party. Avarice is hard to lampoon when you’re also selling themed drinks. Since Gatsby’s copyright has expired, I was surprised that Life and Trust didn’t take the opportunity to write those characters into a few scenes, too — though you might consider J.G. Conwell’s initials.
‘Life and Trust’: the New ‘Sleep No More’ Is a Beautiful, Exhausting Devil
6 / 10
For this (I think!) one-time only participant, Life and Trust was always beautiful to look at, and occasionally captivating as an experience, but without a cohering story to unfurl and something narratively to mold in my mind, it was also frustrating, tiring, and—after hours of wandering around, despite all the striking visual stimuli—thoroughly, teeth-grindingly irritating. This a fun and beautifully, impressively rendered playground, but you will need a lot of time, money, and sensible shoes to make proper sense of it. Its own Faustian bargain, you might say.
