cover art compliments of Steppenwolf Theater
“Brooke Berman's play UNTIL WE FIND
EACH OTHER…has two important things going for it: an intriguing subject matter
(the nature of faith) that rarely gets explored in the theater and a clear
understanding of the way time and place can be quickly fractured and collaged in
live theater. ...it's not often that you want to hear more from a play's
characters. The six people Berman has created are so distinctive and conflicted
that they really keep you guessing.
At the heart of this strange but gently mystical 90-minute drama…are three
American Jews―cousins
who are so close they might be siblings, and at the same time so different they
might be from far-flung planets.
Everyone is searching for something in this play, and while that in itself is
nothing new, the talk about love and experience and spirituality is complicated,
yearning, honest and embattled. And in true Talmudic style, there are far more
questions than simple answers.
UNTIL WE FIND EACH OTHER is a play in which everybody is wrestling with
angels. And their battles are worth observing.”
