There are two reasons that I have been a bit too busy to write much the last few weeks. Here is reason number one: I am producing Vigil by Morris Panych off-Broadway at the DR2 in Union Square. Opening this evening (but Variety printed the review a day early). Get your tickets now!
From today’s Variety:
VIGIL
Kemp – Malcolm Gets
Grace – Helen Stenborg
By MARILYN STASIO
Canadian scribe Morris Panych has written a funny play that makes you want to cry. An offbeat two-hander about two of the loneliest people alive, "Vigil" sets up the intriguing situation of a mercenary young man who quits his bank job to keep a deathwatch on a rich aunt he hasn’t seen in 30 years. Under Stephen DiMenna’s shrewd helming, Malcolm Gets and Helen Stenborg turn in sterling performances as this oddly matched pair, trapped in a macabre bond that’s comic on the surface, heartbreaking at the core. With judicious trimming, this little number could have ‘em in stitches crying.
