production is a delightfully silly yet disturbingly relevant look at the fragility of the white male ego and the power of white gatekeepers, questioning definitions of authorship as it sends up the art world.Through 4/10: Thu-Fri 8 PM, Sat 3 and 8 PM, Sun 3 PM; Steppenwolf 1700 Theatre, 1650 N. Halsted, 312-335-1650,Gus , a white gay painter, is trying to get his work in a prestigious gallery showing.
Kourtis is wonderfully passionate yet thickheaded as Gus, who sees everything as a reflection of himself, his character a mirror of so many people who’ve denied their discriminatory behavior while in the midst of practicing it. Bunch is transformative as not only Vanessa/Balkonae, but also as a fabulous diva, appearing as Gus’s “inner Black woman,” scrutinizing some of the appropriative nature of white gay culture.
