    I attended Beowulf Alley's Athene on Friday the 13th (not auspicious, to be sure) and was profoundly impressed by this production. The writing was crisp and funny and the performances were very strong. Trisin in the title role was moving, hilarious, combustible. Rare are there strong roles for young women in theater and she tore it up. The undercurents in the play of the relative use of medicating young people to make them normal was well received by this audience member. In my view, Tucson needs more theater like this. The play doesn't "make you think," it allows you to, it begs you to. Late night shows usually involve actors running around half naked screaming (and there is some of that in this one), but Athene gives humor, wit and some verity to the theater scene. I've not seen these actors around town before, so it's nice there are fresh faces as well. Thanks, Beowulf. I'm happy to stay up late for this kind of theater any day. Collapse
