BAM: The Caretaker

This Pinter play is the very best production I've seen at BAM in years.  One of the audience members was commenting that the dry script would have been well-nigh unreadable... but boy did it come alive in performance!  There was so much in the body language, the facial expressions, and tone of voice; the actors brought out depths of humor, poignancy, and suspense.

I'd somehow gotten a seat in the very front row, and one of the actors (Alex Hassell) had such a mischievous expression at times that he really reminded me of S and I couldn't help smiling when our eyes met.  (I tried very hard not to stare!)
