And discuss it they do, deeply, frantically and fully. Their anxiety is through the roof and Aaron Cammack as M and Taigé Lauren as W make their neurosis palpable in this love story between two flawed people who just want to do good in the world. People are also reading… And you don’t want these two actors to hide: each is packed with talent and has embraced the challenging material beautifully. Director Robert Encila made sure that the clarity that could have easily been lost was there.
But this piece falls apart in the last 30 minutes as the two rush through life, pushing their concerns for the Earth aside as they get on with the business of living. It becomes predictable and leaves one wondering why what was so right could just peter out.“Lungs” continues through June 10 at Live Theatre Workshop, 3322 E. Fort Lowell Road. Thursday performances are $17, all other performances are $21.
