Magical. Whatever you do alone in your house is exactly like what everybody else does in their homes. Yet as conjured by Berkeley Rep’s magical Home, there’s no despair in the sameness of humans’ domestic life, only joy in shared experience. There’s solace in what binds us, and that rare feeling in theater of an audience of strangers forging true community as they build a house and then empty it again…A home is never just walls and ceiling. It gives you dignity and humanity. It holds who you are. Such is [Geoff] Sobelle’s expansive vision. You might leave Home wishing he could cast his eyes over your own dwelling, to highlight the magic in your own coffee pot, in the glow of your TV, in the picture frames on your walls. But to attend Home is also to remember how to see, on your own.”
San Francisco Chronicle
Whimsy and magic continues throughout most of Home’s intricately choreographed, delightfully staged 105 minutes. It’s a showcase of dazzling stagecraft, meticulously directed by Lee Sunday Evans, with an awesome scenic concept by Steven Dufala.”
