Description
The Civilians explore nostalgia from the inside out in this erudite yet democratic philosophical vaudeville: a lavishly suggestive collection of vignettes about misplaced objects and the displaced emotions that rise in their wake. Performed by a remarkable, protean cast of six, the show’s interview-based tales—compiled into a script by Civilians demiurge Steven Cosson, with dazzling pastiche-makes-perfect songs by Michael Friedman—form a witty mosaic whose constituent parts retain their particularity. Miss it and weep.—AF
