This production makes use of a simple device to focus attention to the different characters. A cluster of platforms at different levels breaks up the performance space; the actors array themselves around the platforms, or venture into the audience (an effective technique, especially when it comes to an "in your face" moment of strident media voices).
The performances can be intimate, almost private; they can also be expansive, assertive, declamatory. It’s the difference between listening (as though for an answer) and declaring (as if to fend off any answer that is not the one already invested in), and the tension that arises between the two is propulsive and compelling.
