Below the Belt is a corporate comedy in a corporation that is never named. The work situation may not be physically realistic, but the characters' relationships are starkly, emotionally accurate. To see these three men work together or not work together, especially in the face of the rules that box them in, is the meat of Below the Belt.

Romantic Adventure Prelude to a Kiss at Maverick Theater

Full Price:

SOLD OUT

In this Pulitzer and Tony-nominated comedy by Craig Lucas, a whirlwind romance and marriage takes a startling turn when an mysterious old man congratulates the bride with a kiss. With this kiss, Rita (the bride) and the man have what could be described as a Twilight Zone moment that sends Rita and her would-be husband on a mysterious journey, as they test the true strength of their love, beyond the surface connections that first drew them to one another. Prelude to a Kiss was commissioned and originally staged by South Coast Repertory in January 1988. The play later went on to Broadway and was made into a feature film starring Alec Baldwin and Meg Ryan. Staged Cinema Productions' performance of the play is directed by David Chorley. Learn More

Below the Belt is a prime example of a black comedy, and the actors really understand all they are portraying. The individually talented cast of 3 makes the intimate warehouse space that the show is perfect for the intimate feel of the show. Even though the audience is witnessing people in theoretical cages and what they do to rip each other apart, the show is very smart, and extremely funny. For any theater goer who wishes to laugh or use their mind, this is a very good bet.

It was okay...some funny moments. At other times it seemed a little forced. But what can you expect from 3 characters that have sold themselves wholeheartedly to the company? And what the heck WERE those animals? :)

More Information About Below the Belt

Description

<p>Dreaming of promotions and going home, the characters play out a farcical game of shifting alliances and one-upmanship as they try to "get ahead" in a system where the predators, both real and imagined, seem to lurk around every corner. It’s funny, silly, fanciful, whimsical, and darkly amusing. </p>
