I never thought I'd say this, but if you haven't seen the movie Point Break, you just won't get it. This joyfully low budget production pays homage to the ludicrous and entertaining Keanu/Swayze surfing caper/action adventure movie with relish.
Each night the the production calls forward a member of the audience to play the Keanu character, Johnny Utah; the rest of the cast varies from annoying theater girl to pretty hilarious. The actors portraying Angelo Pappas and Roach stood out as the most excellent, but mainly, perhaps, due to those characters having some of the best lines.
It feels like a very creative jr. high school performance with blood, cap guns, water fights, and lots of boy wrestling. Oh, and that blood and water can make its way into the audience, so do pick up a survival kit for a dollar at the door. If only more plays could have this kind of energy and merrymaking.
But what do you think?
