Twenty years in the making, playwright Lowell Bartholomee’s latest collection of short plays is worth the wait.
Marina DeYoe-Pedraza as Katherine and Sarah Chong Harmer as Wilhelmina in"Game Day," part of Austin Playhouse'sIt's been 20 years since playwright Lowell Bartholomee gathered, and this publication reviewed, a collection of his short works. The Blue Theater playbill described that production – with the self-deprecating titleThe Austin Chronicle
This collection reflects the auteur's trademark wit and engaging intelligence, and each story is thematically linked to the others by its focus on loss – from the pandemic , from old age , from cancer , from the pending apocalypse , and from the shift in Austin's culture as it transitions from weird college town to bustling metropolis .
Bartholomee, the director, employs some tricks of the trade to best showcase his work. He uses set design modestly – with a piece of furniture to establish a sense of place and video images on three sizable screens around the performance space to provide context – so that, without set changes, one play can seamlessly bleed into the next and provide the desired emotional ebb and flow. There is no intermission.
