...slowly dies of AIDS, Roy Cohn, the villain of the play, is consigned to a hospital bed and, horror of horrors, the use of a phone with no hold button. “How am I supposed to perform basic bodily functions?” he howls.Benjamin K. Glaser ’09 manages to make Cohn’s vitriolic hate charismatic; he may be entirely depraved, but he is vibrantly alive. As he lets go of life, he slips into a madness that may or may not be drug-induced. His conversations with Belize, the night nurse, become...
...disheartened but determined to retain composure and a sense of humor no matter the cost. He comes the closest of any of the actors to being able to elicit both tears and laughter from the audience within seconds of each other.Another standout performance is that of Benjamin K.

The fortune cookie wisdom of my grade school years, for instance, dictated that children weaned on classical music would grow up smarter. Playing an Antonio Vivaldi or Antonin Dvorák cassette tape while studying one’s times tables conferred A’s, so it went. SANOSON, however, does not claim to have made strides in the field of child-smartening, nor does it aim to mimic the musical folk therapy employable on, say, crowded restaurant floors. Rather...
...variations on aforementioned stare and Britney delivers a pun almost worthy of the “gracias” / “grassy ass” wisecracks we sported during recess in 5th grade: “If You Seek Amy” / “F-U-C-K Me.” Ladies and gentlemen, this is surely pop songwriting at its finest. However she frames it – “gimme more,” “you’re toxic, I’m slipping under...
