"They may not be perfect, but they're family."
This is the affirmation that's just as much a prison sentence at that heart of "Tribes," Nina Raine's socially-charged, densely-layered and devastatingly on-point drama now playing at Actors Theatre of Louisville.

Victory Gardens closes its 2009/10 Season with the world premiere of Ensemble Playwright Joel Drake Johnson's A Guide for the Perplexed, marking the Chicago return of award-winning Broadway actor Kevin Anderson.
The redeeming quality of this piece is its amazing cast of actors, specifically Anderson, Guinan and Weiler. They bring a dimensionality and life to some pretty lifeless characters. It should be noted though, that I am a fan of these guys, specifically Guinan. He could read the phone book and I would buy a ticket.
