UMKC "Comedy of Asses" review by Lindsay Adams

This production was an adaption of “A Comedy of Asses” with modern language and allusions added to Plautus’s script. It was a freak show of bizarre and grotesquely comical characters. The production chose actors of such disparate sizes and shapes that next to each other, they all seemed like a terrible police line-up. The awkward comparisons of the sizes between actors were played up by a set full of angles and levels.
