Taylor Mac’s GARY: A SEQUEL TO TITUS ANDRONICUS is a madcap romp through piles of corpses and the aftermath of carnage. The always loveable Nathan Lane is a trainee learning how to efficiently dispose of bodies under the tutelage of Julie White and often distracted by the semi-insane Kristine Nielsen who rants on about a baby she could have saved. There are some genuinely funny, full-out-laughter moments in this off-kilter production delivered by three extremely talented actors, and yet my advice would be “Don’t bother.” It is rare that the audience knows what is going on, and after a while the blood and guts and sexual innuendos become tedious and boring. Unfortunately the confusion outweighs the comedy.
