The Albee is listed as being presented rights pending. This is the first time I can remember a theater announcing a show they didn't yet have the rights to, and it seems odd considering Signature's long association with Albee.
I saw Paradise Blue at Williamstown a few seasons ago and found it mostly forgettable. The two Suzan-Lori Parks plays are not her best work. Compared to the bumper crop Signature has produced the last few seasons, this one feels a bit disappointing.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
