This absorbing puzzle play, concerning repressed memories of childhood sexual abuse and involving classically brutish brothers, takes place in a fancy institution for the dangerously self-medicated. A cruel father and a sexually predatory young man represent two dark forces. Their actions affected two brothers differently, but clearly left a dark dark imprint on their psyches. Helping to understand the psyche of the American male, this provocative and sexualized mystery plumbs adolescence in American lives: how it can be warped, stolen, frozen and willfully extended. What went on in that “dark dark house” shows the ripple and long-term effects of family dysfunction and violence, that shared trauma can poison kinship and ricochet down to subsequent generations.
Directed by Duane Jackson.
