Flat Earth Theatre

Theater Review: The Sci-Fi of “X” — Revelation Through Disintegration

Part cautionary tale about the fate of the earth, part homage to Samuel Beckett, part theatrical metaphor for dementia, X is a harrowing exploration of the human psyche.

Theater Review: “Delicate Particle Logic” — History, Re-voiced

Fuse Theater Review: “Blinders” — Choppy Political Satire

Patrick Gabridge’s political satire presents some intriguing sci-fi-like concepts, but the play falls into too many narrative potholes.

Fuse Theater Review: Flat Earth Theatre Bugs Out

In BUG, a deranged veteran fights for his “freedom” against phantoms in a hermetically sealed echo chamber that he is willing to blow up for the good of mankind. As The Tea Party would have it: Either change the government or shut it down.
