    It is a production that presents a challenge to the cast and crew to show the viewpoints and emotions of both sides well. And they do, for the most part.

    Sterling K. Brown is an intriguing mystery as he balances a benevolent, supportive side with a darker nature under the surface of Medwin, and Iola Evans is truly captivating as Tanna. While part of me wishes they were offered better material to work with in parts of the show, they still ultimately succeed in livening it up and making it a worthwhile venture.

    More pressing, for me, was the question of who Wash is, in terms of his personality. As written and performed, we don’t get much sense of what his own particular internal monologue might be, and this becomes underscored in any scene he shares with Brown’s Medwin, who is such a clearly defined presence by comparison. Brown’s an actor working on a different level than most, and he’s very effective in his few appearances.
