See this, not that
There are many great shows in the City this weekend, several with oddly similar themes. If you’re having trouble picking between these topically-similar shows, we offer our recommendations*:
OFFICE POLITICS
See this, 
Office politics without a filter or conscience, 55 fast-paced minutes of two buttoned-down office workers taking down a third, it’s like watching lions hunt their dinner.
not that
An excruciatingly realistic portrayal of a struggling travel agency’s weekend office retreat. The cast’s review of the “meeting” agenda induces real life boredom.
ADOPTING A CHILD FROM AFRICA
See this,
An autobiographical solo play about a single and unemployed gay actor struggling to adopt an Ugandan orphan, called witty, gripping, energetic, and uplifting.
not that
A straight married couple struggle over whether to adopt a child from Africa, despite critical praise from the New York Times, it’s just not that interesting.
LOVE, LOSS & THE PAST
See this,
and see this
These two plays are running in rep at the 4th Street Theatre. Both explore love, loss, and the past and both are devastating and wonderful.
