Playwright S. Karlan Returns To 13th Street Repertory Theatre
by Julie Musbach
- Aug 13, 2018
Strange situations and encounters are something that happens in many of S. Karlan's short plays. A strange connection here, a misunderstood relationship there, the question of love and gender, robotic partners, and pretty much anything that leaves you wondering what the hell is really going on make up some of his stories. For audience members, there is always one play that stands out the most, and usually you hear them talking about it on the way out. 'He should have just loved her,' said one older man after one of his shows last March. 'So what if he wasn't sure that she was a man or a woman.' People have vastly wide opinions about the material. But if the idea is to create a dialogue, S. Karlan's play do just that.
