Terminus at Studio Theatre

Terminus

Studio Theatre
1501 14th St. NW Washington

A is a teacher attempting to rescue her former pupil from a dangerous back-street abortion. B is a young woman who falls from a construction crane and in love with a demon made of worms. C is a homicidal sociopath who sells his soul to the Devil for an angelic voice heard only by his victims. This supernatural vision from Irish playwright Mark O’Rowe (Crestfall) takes its audience on a dizzying plunge through its characters’ quietest fears and most intimate desires.

"...The three actors barely move on the bleak, litter-strewn stage. Still, a bracing sense of velocity seizes you as the Studio Theatre 2ndStage production of “Terminus” barrels toward its idiosyncratic conclusion. It’s not just that Irish playwright Mark O’Rowe’s darkly mystical urban tale contains hurtling chase scenes — one involving cops and a criminal, and one a set of fate-enforcing angels. It’s also that this intense intermissionless piece, directed by Tom Story, unleashes a flood of gritty, poetic language quickened by a sneaky riptide of narrative."

"...No one should ever accuse The Studio Theatre of bowing to the pressure of getting into the holiday spirit. In this time of Islamic State and relentless “drones,” torture reports and rectal feedings, the killing of unarmed citizens (children, teens, and adults) by police officers–not to mention the once a week school shootings since Sandy Hook or the rampant sexual assault in the military and on college campuses or just your run-of-the-mill murders and armed robberies and rapes–a little bit of “Joy to the World” might be nice, if it didn’t make one feel so delusional."

did I enjoy Terminus? Can’t honestly say that I did. Over the course of the show I proceeded from amused to shocked to annoyed to eventually just deadened and sad.
