Description
Kristoffer Diaz's exhilarating new play, his first full-fledged production, embraces the shameless fakery of the alleged sport of pro wrestling to illuminate, in comic but relentless tones, the more pernicious falsities of race, nation and empire. Diaz combines mad inventiveness with a nervy taste for button-pushing, spinning a scenario in which a pair of wrestlers adopt terrorist personae. Chad Deity establishes the young writer as a major theatrical force, and Edward Torres's exuberant production weds the budget of Victory Gardens to the fringe thrill of an old-school House Theatre show. As the narrating grappler Macedonia Guerra, Desmin Borges dazzles.—John BeerWhen
