LARRY
Candy Bones—
I’m generally not a fan of performers pre-show kibitzing with the audience as I feel it often makes the audience uncomfortable. But perhaps with Larry, that was the point. Because there was plenty to create a sense of unease in this mainly goofy comedy, like catching yourself laughing at the character’s political incorrectness. With a less talented performer and a less bold, relentless performance, it would not have worked. But it does work. I especially enjoyed it since, growing up in a small town like the actor did, I knew my share of Larry’s too.
