    “In The Wake”

    San Diego Repertory Theatre, Lyceum Stage. (feb.11-mar.4) This stunning new play is a major American work for our time.

Laced with incisive humor and surprising revelations about assumptions that lie at the heart of the American character, this earing play asks us to look for the blind spots that mask us from ourselves.
