Unearthing raw passions: Sam Shepard's midwest gothic about an Illinois farm family gets a riveting revival with AstonRepTheatre | Matt Simonette 👇
Sam Shepard’s Pulitzer Prize-winning drama about a rural Illinois family beset by delusion and dysfunction is brilliantly brought to life by AstonRep Theatre Company.
Alcoholic patriarch Dodge is permanently ensconced on the living room couch yelling to his wife, Halie . Few people could be worse caretakers for the ornery Dodge than Halie, who spends most of her days and nights upstairs, wistfully gazing at the fallow fields, remembering happier days. Characters throughoutturn on a dime, but Halie is especially brutal when she turns on a dime from foggy, wistful reminiscences to acrid denunciations, thanks to Cloud’s masterful interpretation.
The ghosts of O’Neill, Williams, and Steinbeck are definitely in the air, but Shepard’s thematic preoccupations are front and center as well—decaying family structures, the inherent instabilities within masculine identity, and the expansive emptiness of the American plains. Director Derek Bertelsen and his cast and crew make a complicated drama riveting.
