Originally produced off-Broadway in 2006, Keith Bunin's complex THE BUSY WORLD IS HUSHED is now enjoying an excellent regional revival courtesy of Theatre Out, Orange County's Gay and Lesbian Theatre company, with performances playing through February 5 at the Empire Theatre in Santa Ana. Theatre Out's intimate setting, coupled with a trio of great performances from its cast, serve this intelligent, engaging drama quite well.
