The Shape of Things, Original Off-Broadway Cast (2001)
Cast: Rachel Weisz (Evelyn), Paul Rudd (Adam), Gretchen Mol (Jenny), & Frederick Weller (Philip)
The Shape of Things is a wonderful play by Neil LaBute that deals with changing yourself for a relationship and all the consequences of that. There is also an emphasis on art, which is very good.
I was amazed by the transformation in The Shape of Things and highly recommend this play to anyone who can get there. The cast is amazing and it was great to finally see them in a live performance. The Shape of Things is a very eye-opening play and definitely one of the best I've seen in years.
Note: The Shape of Things is now a movie, so rent it on DVD if you haven't seen the play. They did a great job using the original cast of the play for the movie and kept the integrity of the play by doing so.
