Losing Louis January 16, 2009

Brighton Little Theatre presents:
"Losing Louis" by Simon Mendes da Costa (2005)

Set in a family bedroom in two time frames, the 1950s and present day, we see the effects of Louis' infidelity reverberating in his own lifetime, and in the aftermath of his death. The unfolding family saga is compelling and, as more and more is revealed, everything makes perfect sense, while not being wholly predictable. Although one would not imagine this to be the most likely material for amusement, perhaps the most striking thing about the play are the many excellently constructed and equally excellently delivered jokes, along with situations themselves that border on the farcical.
