I saw The Pull of Negative Gravity by Jonathan Lichtenstein, it was good; very very powerful and some shocking content, not shocking as in child murders (ahem, Pillowman) but shocking in terms of the courage, strength and selfishness of humans. Not for everyone, and some of it was just average, but it hits you much later.

Edit: BTW, it's Brits off Broadway, not Britts. Updated On: 5/14/05 at 06:14 PM
