A brilliant linguist who studies the loss of world languages faces the potential end of his marriage unless he can find the words to stop his wife from leaving. Meanwhile his archival assistant is mute with adoration for him and his newest subjects, an elderly couple who are the last speakers of an obscure language, refuse to utter a word to one another. This magically inventive comedy about communication, love, and Esperanto from Julia Cho was commissioned by Roundabout Theatre Company and developed at the O'Neill National Playwrights Conference. It recently won the 2010 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize. Learn More

This work is one of the greatest in modern theatre, and it's pretty rare that the two plays are done in rep. I'm so glad that Forum decided to do both, because it's an incredible opportunity. The show is set in the 1980s, but the themes and messages still resonate with today's audiences. It is beautifully acted for the most part (I didn't like one of the actors, but his style isn't my taste) and the minimalistic set really makes you focus on the characters and what they are saying. Well done, Forum. I'll be back next week for "Perestroika."

Make time in your schedule to attend this production. The touching intersection of these characters' lives will move you in a way that transcends the political 80s themes (although these themes are certainly still relevant). A strong cast, with exceptional performances by Karl Miller and Alexander Strain, make this a very satisfying evening of theatre...and Kushner's wonderful writing never fails to astound.

The play is definitely for an adult audience (much older than 16 years old). There is full-frontal nudity and stimulation of male sex, so you can not go if you are easily offended. With that said, the play was excellent. The actors were unbelievable and I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys plays. It was the best play that I have seen and the Round House Theatre production definitely proved why the play won the Tony. Bravo!
