Erika shares her fascinating, true story of her time as visiting student in Indonesia, during a dangerous era. It was exciting, interesting and worthwhile to see. I would have preferred that she just relate the tale and not rely so heavily on theatrical techniques such as repeating phrases; to make the thing seem to come full circle. It just seemed forced. Her apologizing for confusing us repeatedly at the beginning is not needed and condescending to the audience. We are pretty sophisticated theatre goers, for the most part; and I certainly didn’t find myself confused. For that, you need a first year dramatic arts production. The story and her talent are enough to stand alone.
Erika is half of a very talented partnership with Paul Strickland, who brought us the wonderful Papa Squat and Ain’t True and Uncle False, hailing from Cincinnati. Go see his show too!
