Variations on Night is a wonderful opportunity to shine a spotlight on some of the best cutting edge playwrights in the region.

Rapid Lemon and Strand, both known for promoting new works, present a puzzle of humanity with HONEY BEE BABY, a new work by Philadelphia-based Erlina Ortiz through January 25th. Elements of acting, theatrical technology and direction augment an unusual and satisfying script that asks hard questions with no pat answers.

Playwright Suzan Lori-Parks evidently likes to swing for the fences. In The Book of Grace, now being presented by Rapid Lemon, he is fearless in presenting an extravagantly exaggerated and often violent version of the realities she sees in our country today. Despair seems the only reasonable response – and yet optimism, however irrational, cannot be absolutely extinguished. Parks exhibits an extravagant talent and a penchant for grand themes – and a pervasive if not totally dominant skepticism.

THINK PINK is new material presented in the form of short plays, snippets of humanity, gently delivered, with a twist on a topic you might take for granted. The ensemble performers work also as stage crew, literally putting together each set from modular pieces. The final sequence makes a strong statement about community and what makes one.

One of the things drama does so well is to make us think and feel about the vectors a society is following. And one of the things happening in our society that drama needs to address is our headlong rush into technology with a personality verging on personhood. Proxy is a thoughtful and perceptive consideration of that rush.
