UNDERNEATH THE LINTEL

Quicktake on UNDERNEATH THE LINTEL

     "Under the Lintel" is an intriguing one man show, given an intense reading by Jason Lambert. His indeterminate age and lack of accent immediately raises some questions about the reality of the piece. Barlow Adamson, who also did Shakespeare's "R&J" for this company, has directed this 90 minute show economically, without forcing any particular interpretation on Glen Berger's complex monodrama. The set has a somewhat improvised air which only adds to the puzzle whether Lambert's Librarian is merely obsessive, or involved in some deeper mystery concerning the obscure myth this archetypical functionary is pursuing. Mill 6 continues to find and produce plays of literary interest using some of the best talent available. Now if they could only find a slightly larger and equally affordable venue so more people could see it.
