Apoptosis

Metanoia Theatre Co.—The Gargoyle Theatre

Stressful family drama, dealing with personal trauma around relationships, the ways we deal with them, and the medical system that we’re forced through tragedy to relate with. The script itself is competent, if a bit predictable in the different twists and turns it takes, and the characters are a bit over written and over acted, leading to some difficulties in relating and empathizing with them. Despite all the flaws, this could easily be a diamond in the rough for those looking for tough conversations and family drama.
