Slow-starting 'Edwin' gets a lift from fine acting

Post Gazette: "As a title, 'Disinfecting Edwin' is rather weird. Why not? So is the play.
We've seen this sly mixture of genres before in Amy Hartman's taste for surreal comedy and loopy seriousness. I'm thinking most of 'The Chicken Snake,' a touching family drama that feels like farce but digs deep, staged by Playhouse Rep in 2007, but also of several workshops and short plays, including 'Digesting Henry Hill,' an earlier version of the promising work now at Open Stage."
