McGurk: A Cautionary Tale

OK, I'll just say it: I think Elevator Repair Service is the best young performance group in town. Their mix of Foreman, Wooster, Keaton, and third grade may sometimes come up a little thin on content, but their theater of reassociation is not so much about what the dots look like as how they get connected. McGurk is ERS's new work in progress, based oh-so-loosely on Luc Sante's Lowlife. Call it a New York western.
