HARRY LIPSTEIN

Stupid Fucking Bird Review 

......As Doyle, Harry Lipstein is smug, somewhat inscrutable, likable but still suspicious; as Nina, the woman who’s tempting him to stray, Cindy de la Cruz is both naïve and resolute, easily dropping incipient artist Con for the real thing in famous Doyle. Poor Con — Joseph McGranaghan in a strong performance — is a fiery denouncer of outdated art, a guileless lover of Nina and the image of despair when his girlfriend starts making eyes at another man. Zak Wilson as Dev, Summer Dawn Wallace as Mash, and Dan Higgs as Sorn all offer fine performances as well. Vincent Carlson-Brown directs muscularly, allowing his actors to leave the theater building at times, or to climb up into the audience. Becki Leigh’s fine costumes include Doyle’s jaunty sports coat over a black tee-shirt, as well as the removable night things worn by all in the interrupted seduction scene. John C. Reynold’s mostly bare set includes a portrait of a seagull in Act One, and a kitchenette in Act Two.
