              New York, NY

We recently had the opportunity to attend the Chain One Act Festival and see the following shows:

The Fusion Experiment

Written by John Arthur Long 

Starring David Rey and Christina Elise Perry 

A futuristic show about a couple of strangers that find themselves part of mysterious experiment. This is an intriguing show that leaves you wanting to know more.  

Sh*t Kickers

Written by Lyle Kessler

Starring Carol Kane and Margaret Ladd among others

A very short show about a group of woman trying to defy death. These fierce, feisty, tough talking women are hilarious and the show is a hoot. 

Sweet Tart

Written by Jeryl Brunner

Starring Ralph Macchio, Julia Macchio and Jeryl Brunner

Partly an amusing taking on internet dating gone wrong, partly a reminsence about childhood trauma. This show seemed very disjointed, and it was unclear how the two parts related. In the end, you didn't know whether to laugh or be sad. Allegedly, the show is a part of a series of shows about the main character. Maybe, it would make more sense if the separate shows were put together. 

And that's our view. To find out about what is coming next at the Chain, go to www.chaintheatre.org

Tune in tomorrow for this week's Sunday Scoop.
