Joshua Harmon's family comedy 'Skintight' has its West Coast premiere with a strong ensemble led by musical theater star Idina Menzel, proving her comic chops.
both produced at the Geffen, specializes in a comedy of awkward abrasiveness. Insecure yet unmistakably arrogant, superficial yet deeply wounded, his characters are rude in personal color and somewhat washed out in soul.
Will Brittain, Harry Groener, Idina Menzel and Eli Gelb in a scene from Joshua Harmon's"Skintight" at the Geffen Playhouse. “I’d like to sleep in a bed with sheets made from your skin,” he tells Trey with creepy tenderness. Say what you will about Elliot’s moral refinement, he is a man of exquisite taste.
Harmon pairs off his characters for scrupulously observed exchanges that explore different aspects of his thematic territory. Benjamin, who’s studying queer theory in college but has been spending the semester in Hungary to connect with the family roots no one seems to know much about because of the Holocaust, recognizes Trey from porn videos.
