THEATRE THREE’S DEVIL

It’s not quite as much fun as Urinetown (where they linked FB and berried my name), but almost. The Devil’s Disciple builds up to a court scene so funny James Frey might have laughed. Every scene with Terry Vandivort in it has a comic intensity, because everybody’s waiting to see what exquisite twist he’ll put on the next insult. A perfect performance. And Lynn Blackburn as Judith makes the spirited male reaction to her presence entirely understandable. (Was that understated enough?) This is T3’s best since Metamorphoses last summer. It’s difficult to overpraise the consistent excellence of director René Moreno.
