Christina Anderson’s drama about family ties and painful memories gets compelling world premiere at Berkeley Rep.
Janice is carrying a lot of water weight. She’s weighed down by a lifetime of family and community history centered around water and who gets access to it.
Produced in association with Chicago’s Goodman Theatre, “ripple” was commissioned by Berkeley Rep and developed as part of its Ground Floor new play lab. It’ll play the Goodman in January, and Kansas City Repertory Theatre will also produce the play in March. This latest “ripple” is set in the fictional city of Beacon, Kansas, remembered by Janice from her new home in Ohio in the “present” of 1992. Her life there is orderly and tightly controlled, down to under exactly which circumstances she can expect phone calls from Beacon. She keeps her new life as separate as possible from her old one, not even letting her husband and kids join her if she has to visit.
We see the characters at many ages, beautifully delineated by the actors and by Montana Levi Blanco’s costumes and period-appropriate hairstyles.
