One of my favorite places in New York to see upcoming
theater is definitely The Public Theater. This year I’ve had the opportunity to
experience quite a few shows at The Public. Most recently, I went to one of
their fall shows regarding new and upcoming work. I saw a reading of “Falling
Apart… Together”, which my friend let me pick out based on title. The play is
about a middle aged couple figuring out life as one son heads starts his senior
year, it was surprisingly very funny and very heartwarming, even when things
were not going quite as swimmingly. I think so many people can relate to trying
to have it all, or barely having anything together. I will also give major
credit to the author/play write and actress Kathryn Grody, not only was the
story very entertaining, but having her play all the major characters was an
amazing feat. I totally could picture in my mind how the each of the characters
were and didn’t get to bogged down on that she was everyone, but it was truly
amazing because I don’t know how I didn’t hit that focus point. Anyway, if you
ever get the chance to go to The Public Theater, you should run – it’s definitely
a more intimate experience compared to Broadway.
