John S. Anastasi’s "Pied À Terre" is one of those small cast dramas with a lot of secrets to unload. Unfortunately, director Mitch Poulos has staged the play at so slow a pace that it seems to take twice as long as it should. It also has a tricky structure, going back and forth between the present and the past, so that the revelations are greatly delayed. One of the biggest secrets is revealed just before the unnecessary intermission which only serves to make the play longer. [more]
