Description
From its opening, Fedra reflects Lookingglass's commitment to sumptuous production values. But the passions on display in ensemble member J. Nicole Brooks's updated version of Racine don't always come up to the operatic heights of the decor. Without the elaborate wallowing in the depths of her erotically charged despair supplied by the original, the tragic queen Fedra (Brooks) seems merely fickle and vindictive. The piece stays at the level of its decorous pool: a seductive spot for toe-dipping, but nowhere anyone could drown.—John BeerWhen
