Griffin Theatre Company presents the Midwest premiere of Bathsheba Doran's Kin. When Kin debuted in 2011 in New York, The New York Times called it "the finest new play of the season." This sweeping story of the gradual forming of a new family spans two continents and seven years, blending comedy and drama to tell a joyful and poignant story about ten people who must come together. A native of England, Doran has won numerous playwriting awards, and worked as a writer on the second season of HBO's Boardwalk Empire. Learn More

Interesting plot, fine acting (overall). Script was weakened by paying too much attention to the fishing metaphor, and not enough to the real theme of economic desperation. Lead character's descent from lovable uncle to violent vigilante was hard to accept.Written on Mar 06 2012

Enjoyed the Minn. fishing lore, very realistic portrait of these folks. The negitive was the choice to go against the text, felt to contrived and affective.Written on Mar 05 2012
