Description
The Goodman offers a powerful, frustrating production of José Rivera’s lyrical memory play based on his own parents’ marriage and migration from Puerto Rico to Alabama. Frustrating, on the one hand, because the play traffics in some seriously creaky theatrics, particularly in the second act. And at the same time, for all its flaws, Henry Godinez’s staging manages to find the vibrant heart in Rivera’s sweetly unsentimental scenario.—JB
