Hold Me In The Water
10 / 10
If Ryan J. Haddad‘s script for “Hold Me In The Water” were any more spare it would disappear. As a mater of fact, this enchanting piece already does that. This is a master class in turning story into magic. A sense of precision runs through this production from the tipity-top where Haddad emerges from out of nowhere to the final graceful denouement where he returns whence he came. In between, Haddad holds us in the palm of his hand. He is a gentle guide, beginning with his description of a a “Relaxed Performance.” That means a few things. The house lights are dim but not fully out. Please feel free to come and go as you need, you will always be allowed re-entry.
