The unsparing British play by Ella Hickson is having its U.S. premiere in Chicago.
Krystal Ortiz and Lucy Carapetyan in the U.S. premiere of Ella Hickson's"The Writer" at Steep Theatre.
Typically, such plays are about the theater itself, as is the case with the British play “The Writer,” penned by Ella Hickson, seen at London’s Almeida Theatre in 2018 at the height of the #MeToo movement, and now with gloves laced up for a U.S. premiere at Chicago’s Steep Theatre under the direction of Georgette Verdin.
Hickson’s point of view is British and feminist but the play put me in mind of Ike Holter’s “Red Rex,”and a homegrown critique of white theater people inaccurately convinced of their own liberality. The power centers under authorial attack are different here, but the pieces are similarly caustic, unsparing and entertaining.
