The Most Spectacularly Lamentable Trial of Miz Martha Washington felt like a 60s acid trip - Review by Carol Moore
** Somewhat Recommended ** The Most Spectacularly Lamentable Trial of Miz Martha Washington felt like a 60s acid trip – with real people chanting horrible, hurtful words, morphing into nightmarish specters in vicious, swirling colors threatening sanity. I know that slavery was evil, repugnant and a blot on our American history, but I still cringed at the level of torture portrayed on Steppenwolf’s stage. Honestly, I’d take the acid trip over this play. 2 Spotlights
