Description
Neil LaBute's two-character drama, set on the morning of September 12, 2001, manages to carve a stark examination of a doomed relationship from the edifice of tragedy writ large. In this taut and affecting Chicago premiere, Joe Jahraus's measured direction peels back the layers of the tightly wound affair. Cheryl Graeff acutely conveys how Abby is both repulsed and entranced by Ben, who's an indelible and charismatic jerk in Darrell W. Cox's agile hands. We know what's coming, but Cox keeps us guessing until the play's end.—Megan PowellWhen
