Marc Miller takes a look at Still from Colt Coeur at DR2:
With Brooklyn Laundry having recently ended its merry run at Manhattan Theatre Club, New York now has a new, not-dissimilar mini-romance to celebrate. Lia Romeo's Still, from Colt Coeur at DR2, shares many traits with the John Patrick Shanley comedy-drama. Both run about an hour and a quarter. Both tread confidently in the realms of romcom and drama, often in the same breath. Both throw together a man and a woman who may or may not be meant for each other, but we're sympathetic to both parties and rooting for them to work their conflicts out. And I pretty much loved both. |
