Neil LaBute’s Some Girl(s)

November 5–22, 2009

Your career as a writer is blossoming, your beautiful, young fiancée is waiting to get married and rush off to Cancún by your side—so what is your natural reaction? Well, if you’re a man, it’s probably to get nervous and start calling up old girlfriends.

“[LaBute’s] view of modern men and women is unsparing... [He] is holding up a pitiless mirror to ourselves. We may not like what we see, but we can’t deny that—if only in some dark corner of our souls—it is there.”

—Jacques le Sourd, The Journal News
