Act Fast To Get Your Tickets For “Slowgirl”
By Chris Narloch
Two-person plays require strong writing and careful casting to keep an audience’s attention, but they also reap benefits for a viewer that can include a depth of character development and performance not found in many one-person plays or ensemble works.
The current production of “Slowgirl” at Sacramento’s Capital Stage boasts a pair of impressive performances, a smart script, and skillful direction that wrings every bit of drama out of this rich story of two damaged souls battling and ultimately bonding in the jungle.
