Packed in punches

Worth
KC Fringe Festival
Trussel's KC Star review (http://www.kansascity.com/2011/07/24/3033373/review-worth-a-highlight-of-fringe.html) peaked my interest -- so I went to the Sunday afternoon show. Trussel was right on: I saw intense characters, great acting, and the collision of middle-class family with the criminal underworld of prostitution. For me, the condensing of the 2 act play into 60 minutes resulted in a jolty, somewhat disjointed and overwhelming story. Debt, divorce, coming out, prostitution, abuse, drugs, and violence are all packed in the hour of tension and tragedy.
