What I love about this play is that every time you read it, you find new tidbits to muse over. It's twisted, unexpected, and you should be reading it now instead of these schmucky reviews.
Rated by buyers -
I've just finished acting in this play. I played Rachel, the Alice in Wonderland-esqe protaganist who keeps getting tossed and turned, from Springfield to Springfield, until she is finally forced to make some very interesting conclusions about the reckless world she discovers she is living in.
RECKLESS conveys such a wide range of emotions, and any reader who can remember the magic of Christmases past, the glorious expectations of childhood, the DREAM of what life was supposed to be, will enjoy this play.
It also happens to be one of the funniest plays I've ever read, and even if you're not acting in it or directing it, it is a play that you will enjoy reading, because it is so well-written and elegantly crafted. In fact, it is a very intricate text, with so many hidden meanings and word plays, that a close reading of it IS necessary if you are going to act it as it should be acted.
Touching, beautiful, sad and true, RECKLESS is a gem of a play.
Rated by buyers -
The play is existentialist in nature, but not unapproachable. It is funny and sad, lighthearted and dreary. It layers daily, late 20th century, silly modernisms and affectations with subtle philosophical ponderings. Rachel is delightful and strange. The audience feels for her as she endlessly quests from one Springfield to another, realizing that Santa and Satan are inherently related and that you can never really know anyone . . . not your husband, your son, your assasin, not even yourself. A must-read. A must-perform. You'd be "reckless" not to. A comedy, with some serious edges.
