It\u2019s Theatre Thursday! Today\u2019s show is the brand-new work Shipwreck, playing at <\/em>London<\/em>\u2019s Almeida Theatre until March 30.<\/em>

Anne Washburn writes some of the most intriguing plays of recent times, usually saying something interesting but in a strange, off-kilter way that heightens the story. Unfortunately, Shipwreck, the \u2018Donald Trump play\u2019, as it\u2019s known, hasn\u2019t managed to harmonize the \u2018things to say\u2019 with the \u2018strange\u2019 in a way that makes three hours of thinking about Cheeto Mussolini worthwhile. The messages Washburn finds important to share with us are conveyed mainly in monologues and often told directly to the audience, rather than through character interaction, a contrivance that often seems like cheating. The expected weirdness from her works comes in random spurts, and while some of it works, some of it really doesn\u2019t, and all of it would be better suited to a framework built for the more fantastical aspects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


\n\n\n\n

From the title, I assumed the tale would involve an actual shipwreck that would be an allegory for the current political situation, something complex and deep that reflected the Angry Creamsicle\u2019s mess in a sophisticated way. Or just in any metaphorical sense. To my surprise, it\u2019s literally about a group of liberal friends complaining about the Carrot Demon, just flat out, nothing complex about it. There\u2019s even a meta moment where the characters talk about how political plays that aren\u2019t metaphorical are always less effective and too specific. So\u2026that\u2019s true, guys. I get that it\u2019s hard to write a play about a situation that changes by the minute, as it\u2019s both important to document the current times and impossible for the work to remain current, but to literally acknowledge that, what, you know it won\u2019t be successful? It\u2019s weird. Is it a self-own?

I was still open-minded and hoping to find deeper meaning, perhaps in the setting \u2013 a remote farmhouse, a new acquisition of one of the couples, during a severe snowstorm where they hadn\u2019t stocked up on food. The group is forced to eat old frozen hotdogs and use ketchup as a main ingredient in pasta, which could indicate the kind of desperate trouble we\u2019re all in. Yet the farmhouse scenes \u2013 the vast majority of the play \u2013 mainly feature the friends talking, complaining, arguing about politics and rehashing the same kinds of statements most of us have given or heard for the past three years. In the rare instances when they say something new \u2013 like when Khalid Abdalla\u2019s character asks whether, since nothing else has saved the world, maybe this Dark Wizard is actually the answer \u2013 it feels like nonsense. His character seems like a fairly together dude; surely he knows that we\u2019ve tried literally<\/em> nothing to try to save the world, so what on earth would persuade him to believe a farfetched mysticism that\u2019s so ridiculous?

Despite strong acting throughout (and really good accent work all around, so pleased), the only \u2018normal\u2019 character that had a real effect was Fisayo Akinade as a black child (and then adult) adopted by a conservative white family. I wish there was more of him and his story; perhaps it wouldn\u2019t have felt so random and the \u2018payoff\u2019 realization at the end so underwhelming.

Because so much of the play is straightforward, mostly unoriginal talking points, the trademark Washburn bits we do get feel entirely out of place. And not in a good \u2018oh this is dramatically jarring\u2019 kind of way, but in a \u2018why hasn\u2019t the entire show been this absurdist\u2019 kind of way. Although I did not think the battle royale between George W. Bush and Trump worked (and it went on way too long), I still appreciated that they were doing something different. The device with James Comey coming to dinner felt a bit underdeveloped, but his scenes with a golden-brushed Caligula-like Trump character were effective. I would have loved if Elliot Cowan played this crazy emperor-god looking dude the entire show, even though at times, when his voice echoed the exact vocal inflections that Cadet Bone Spurs does, I threw up in my mouth a little, and even though associating his muscular physique with the president\u2019s is too kind. These scenes give the kind of fascinating take on this situation we expected from a Washburn show, not one that is 90% talking to us about how bad things are and how we are probably part of the problem.

And I am so sick of all the clich\u00e9s. I\u2019m sick of the clich\u00e9s about why people voted for a Curdled Orange Julius. Oh, you\u2019re scared of immigrants hurting the economy? Well, you\u2019re an idiot; should I feel sorry for your ignorance or just keep being angry? I\u2019m sick of the clich\u00e9s about how terrible white liberals are. Yes white women are hella annoying but it\u2019s not original or funny to have a white liberal woman character who isn\u2019t perfect but who tries to do the right thing, and to use her mistakes to lambast all liberals. Isn\u2019t trying to be a good person and an ally better than openly being a shitty person? Sure they all desperately need to be sent copies of \u201cSo You Want To Talk About Race\u201d but their need for some racial education doesn\u2019t make them worse than racists. 

This kind of screwed up discourse we have in society, with demanding perfection from those trying to be decent humans while allowing shitty humans to be as shitty as they want, leads me to my biggest problem with this play. I am tired of hearing that liberals may be the problem, or that we are the ones who have to try harder to connect with republicans\/Trumplethinskin supporters and try to see things from their perspectives, to try to get out of our bubbles and understand the other side. BULLSHIT. No one ever asks Fox News viewers to get out of their bubbles, and their bubbles aren\u2019t even escapable; they are made of cement. No one ever asks the people who think that black people all get free college or that jews control all the money and the government or that homosexuality is god\u2019s punishment for women in the workplace or that killing refugee babies brings them closer to Jesus to even take a peek outside their fucked up bubbles. No, it\u2019s always the people who give a shit about decency for all humans that are told it\u2019s our responsibility to understand why<\/em> these people hate minorities and women and can\u2019t think rationally about anything. I am goddamn sick of it. It doesn\u2019t make you shrewd or sensible to again ask \u2018but maybe it\u2019s liberals who are the problem\u2019 and not \u2018but maybe conservatives are literally destroying the world with their ignorance and hate?\u2019 It makes you lazy, irresponsible, and negligent at best. I still cannot believe that this seminal, first major play about Fuckface Von Clownstick is offering these same tired excuses. And that\u2019s my main problem with it.

Also three hours thinking about the Tangerine Tornado is absurd.

INFORMATION<\/strong>
Honestly, the worst part wasn\u2019t the general disappointment or the revulsion at having to think about Toilet Emoji President for three hours. It was the cigarette smoke that overwhelmed the theatre. We saw up in the circle, which you have to enter from a different door from street level. Those doors are open during preshow and the interval, and asshats are literally smoking in the doorways, and asshat staff are doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to keep them away from the entrances. So their asshat smoke wafted clear up the stairs and into the entire circle, so badly that I had trouble breathing at times, and I don\u2019t even have asthma. Preshow, they did the same for the general entrance and the lobby. DO BETTER. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
