The play has ended and the cast is going to have a party on stage. Being the kind and considerate people that actors are, they invite their technician Matt to join the fun. Is the invitation really to include Matt or is it just to have a new audience for their antics? Many secrets will get spilled and maybe Matt has some about the cast. But are any of them true or is it just actors at play?

Later That Night

TBA Productions—John Hirsch Mainstage

What I felt was going to be a story of an outsider looking in, and maybe being accepted, became a mean-spirited elaborate prank with some of the most insufferable characters I could imagine. Plagued with tonal inconsistencies, and at times robotic writing, Later That Night left me wondering who this show was for. Was it meant to showcase that these actors are bad people? Was it meant to indicate that fame is more important than anything else? Was it meant to make you feel bad for Matt? If the last one is the case, it succeeded. The script could have used another pass, the performances could be tightened, and the message ultimately needed focus.
