Through July 26 - Detroit at Aurora Theatre. Nothing less than the American dream itself goes up in flames in Lisa D'Amour's darkly hilarious play, and what starts out as a seemingly innocent backyard BBQ among new neighbors quickly spirals into something more anarchic. Amy Resnick is particularly stellar as Mary, one half of an established suburbanite couple whose greatest dream is to escape her house and go live by a campfire, and I always enjoy watching Patrick Kelly Jones in a role too, here as he plays just-out-of-rehab Kenny. As secrets emerge and the characters learn more about each other any assumptions we might hold about class and ambition come under scrutiny. D'Amour is unafraid to question our current notions of community, and you might never look at the familiar ritual of the backyard cookout the same way again.
