Theater Review - Fences
Fences
Written by August Wilson
Directed by Cameron Knight
Where: Thompson Theater at the Roselle Center for the Arts
(University of Delaware, Newark, DE)
When: Spring 2019
Quick thoughts since I saw the play months ago:
- I find Fences a bit boring particularly in its first act. There's a lot of talk and hardly any action until the act's final minutes. Yes, it's a character piece and it's a piece that certainly creates a complete world for its characters and its setting, but it's not particularly enjoyable to watch. The second act improves quite a bit, but it's a little too late to really elevate the piece for me.
- Good performances that didn't quite reach the levels of Denzel and Viola in the movie, but good nonetheless.
