Based on the playwright's life and considered one of Arthur Miller's most personal plays, After The Fall follows a man on his quest to make peace with his own history and with the tumultuous world around him. This experimental portrait of a man struggling with the choices he has made in his public and private life examines the personal, political and universal forces that collide when we "fall" from innocence. Following the death of his second wife, Quentin tries to move forward, but he must also relive childhood losses, failed marriages and the effects of the 1950s' Blacklist. This rarely produced classic is presented by the HumanArts Theater Company. Learn More

It was really the opportunity to see 4 landmark Sam Shepard plays at once that I enjoyed. The acting skills diverged widely among the performers. Some actors were really quite good.Written on May 08 2009

Description
<p>Four highly acclaimed plays dealing with the myth of the All-American family and the pursuit of the American dream are featured in the Sam Shepard Evening. Contemporary and controversial issues addressed include America’s current debt problem, the animalistic attraction of incest, sibling rivalry, and buried family secrets. A dash of alcoholism, love and violence round out the evening. Filled with recognizable symbolism and metaphors, the characters’ economic struggles are struggles to attain the American dream. Characters’ yearning for food to nourish them are actually yearning for family to nourish them. Curse of the Starving Class, Fool for Love, Buried Child, and True West offer a dynamic evening intense with drama and shocking revelations. </p>
