Following the critical success of THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK, Butterfly Effect Theatre and THE LAB SPACE are back to present a play that is incredibly relevant to our modern moment:
[節目內容]
Can you erase your past?
Is everything at the the long-lost reunion of old high school friends at an old hotel room on the "up and up?" For many years, Vince has been puzzled about one night fifteen years ago when Jon stole Vince's girlfriend, Amy. Since that time, As Jon's star rose, Vince tended to drift in place and his resentment grew. Tonight, the men meet and Vince has a secret. He knows something about Jon's despicable past, and he wants to use it to get the upper hand and convince Amy, once and for all, he is the real "winner." But letting old skeletons out of the closet has consequences for all three, including Amy.
過去真的能夠一筆勾消嗎？
老友久違的團聚，原來是為愛情埋伏的陷阱，文斯找來昔日好友約翰和艾米，可不只打算寒喧聊聊而已。
原來，當年約翰搶了文斯的初戀女友艾米，多年來文斯始終不解且耿耿於懷，善意的寒喧問候逐漸演變成交相指責的唇槍舌戰，文斯如願逼迫約翰承認且相信，多年前導致文斯和艾米分手的那一晚激情，乃是自己耍卑鄙手段強迫艾米就範的。

CRITICAL RECEPTION AROUND THE WORLD [世界各地佳評如潮]
"Filled with rich ambiguities, the play never settles into the predictable"
-- Variety, LA
"...a theatrical experience that is few and far between. It is intimate, anxiety-inducing, and with so much energy, anger, and aggression bouncing between the four walls...You will lose yourself in this high-stakes story, and then talk about it for hours after the bows."
-- Broadwayworld.com, NYC
"This is an affecting and stirring production. It is a visceral experience for the audience, and the three actors give stunning performances. This is a beautiful gem; a very exciting piece of theatre."
--Fourth Wall Magazine, LONDON
"…TAPE is terrific…Belber has expert fun torturing his characters with the things that never get said, yet the language is uniquely telling and the underlying grief shines through."
--The New Yorker, NYC
"Fascinating and entertaining…a terrific play…Real talk, real characters, real situations—a real play."
--NY Post, NYC
"…when it comes to reminding us just why we leave our homes on a cold winter's night and seek the special joys of a live theatrical performance, playwright Stephen Belber has the big guys beat…"
--Wall Street Journal, NYC
"Twisty, edgy 'Tape' plays out in eye-catching reality..."
-- Orlando Sentinel, ORLANDO
..."the star of the show is the magnificent script by a dramatist hitherto unknown in Germany. Maybe he hasn’t come up with anything since that’s as clever as Tape, but this one play by Stephen Belber will become a regular fixture in German theatre repertoires. Hopefully"
-- Deutschlandfunk, BERLIN
"...completely engross you despite the fact that it takes place in the confines of a hotel room and there is no Hollywood styled slam-bang action to be found anywhere."
-- IGN Entertainment, AUSTRALIA
"The audience sat on the edge of their seats for the entire performance, and enthusiastically chatted about the play afterwards at the hotel’s bar."
-- Toorak Times, Victoria, AUSTRALIA
