...play opens with great promise, building the comic intensity will through the first act. The small theatre is tucked away in the basement of an Italian restaurant, and with intrepid imagination in set design, we easily believe that we are sitting in a seedy but bright, lower class North End apartment. From the crowded clotheslines hanging across the theatre to the peeling paint on the dingy walls to the dirty linoleum floor, the intimate theatre-in-the round atmosphere brings us completely into Berto's apartment...

Westering Man offers an unfamiliar frontier landscape. Here, the Indians are con men, whisky distilling is a regional pastime, and meteorites terrify intrepid explorers. The mood is antic, but the True West is not always the most appealing of places. Still, Joseph Walker is its true exemplar, and Bil Gilbert is its true celebrator. Those in search of myth should try Louis L'Amour or Zane Grey...
