Theatre Reviews

They delight in Carmin Wong’s “Coming of Age,” which accumulates a series of verbs and adjectives to delineate the experiences of growing up female, told in the second person. Each finds multiple resonances in repeated phrases like “You run, you wait, you breathe, you twenty, you here.

This is a beautiful and precious experience of the sacred and the profane, the absurd and the flat-out real, the mundane and the momentous that informs the decision we make, the paths we reject, and the way we present to the world. This is theatre for all of us.
