From the depths of Hell arrives a fresh twist on Jean-Paul Sartre's No Exit. M.A.N. Power Entertainment breathes new life into the classic play about death through an original production design first conceptualized by the late Brett Gandy. No Exit exposes the corrupt lives and sudden deaths of three marvelously sinful souls, seductively stylized by abandoned dolls of different eras.

I went to see this show because one of the actors is a friend of mine, his name is Matthew. Not knowing what this show was about, except it had to do with Hell, I wasn't too sure about it. Normally I'm into fluffy type musicals, so this was a big stretch for me. But I can honestly say after seeing it, I was quite impressed with the play! All the performers did an excellent job in their roles. The play was very artsy and even with their wild costumes they wore, it certainly had a message to it. Seeing this play opened my eyes to a new concept of theatre, and I really enjoyed myself. And of course, a special BRAVO goes out to Matthew for his exceptional performance...who knew someone with a quiet speaking voice had such a dynamic vocal range suited for the theatre? You rocked, Matthew, and I can't wait to see you in your next gig!

More Details About This Event:

With the service of a mysterious Valet, one by one, each is led into a simply set room, awaiting the fury and wrath of Hell. As each character evaluates the way they led their lives on earth, the trio slowly comes to grasp that each is the other’s eternal torturer. When triangular relationships develop, they struggle to acquire something from another that cannot – or will not – be surrendered. Thus, all three are doomed to a perpetual stalemate of torture and the ultimate realization that “Hell is just other people.” The fantastical costume and make-up designs strongly contrast the refined dialogue and setting but are united through unconventional movement and music. Two women. One man. No exit.
