The drama of politics

Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "For Quantum Theatre artistic director Karla Boos, the second floor of the former Lazarus Department store, Downtown, is the perfect setting for a play about two men attempting to exorcise ghosts both past and present."

I've heard about this show and it sounds really interesting. I didn't know the venue had that sort of history to it but it makes it all the more interesting to see the juxtaposition of the content and the space as well as how they relate together. It's cool to see productions going on in unorthodox places like this. It reminds me that theatre truly is an art of its surroundings.

I think the space that they choose to do this production is very fitting. Though I have no experiance with this show I think that it is interesting for any show do set itself in an unortidox or strange place. It really sets the audiences mind outside of where they normally are when they go see a play in a theatre. They expect the same old thing there but in unexpected place they are unfamiliar making it a different experiance for everyone.
