Vinegar Tom presented by Red Theater at The Edge Off-Broadway

Chicago Reader - Recommended

"...Punk, for all its thrown elbows and sharp accessories and associations with sexual and social-political fringes, is a deeply vulnerable art form that provides stark tonal contrast with hushed 17th-century austerity while essentially mirroring the era’s gothic extremity. English peasants Alice (Sarah Wisterman) and her alcoholic widow mother (Madeline Bernhard) fall under the suspicion of their comparatively wealthy neighbors (Josh Razavi and Mindy Shore) after the latter are beset by a series of financial misfortunes."

"...The play itself is a hard watch—the content warning for “humiliation” alone doesn’t begin to cover it—but with a crackerjack ensemble like this, faced with either a quick death or a drawn-out death, watching their rage spit fly, you might know what’s coming, but who’s gonna get it is another thing entirely."
