Who needs Kathy Bates and James Caan when you have actors as good as Melinda L. Beckham and Trevor B. Cone in this Dirt Dogs Theatre production?
Trevor B. Cone and Melinda L. Beckham in Dirt Dog Theatre's"Misery" at MATCHIt is a daunting thing to transform a famous novel, which was turned into a famous movie, into something on the stage.
One admirable thing about Dirt Dogs Theatre Company’s production of “Misery,” running through March 18 at MATCH, is that they are not afraid of a challenge, and make no mistake, this play written by the prolific William Goldman is ambitious: the characters are complex, the physicality of the acting is demanding, and most of the audience may have already read the novel, seen the film, or both.
On stage, as in the film, Annie is still susceptible to paranoia and the extreme splitting that comes with borderline personality disorder: one minute Paul Sheldon is the man and writer of her dreams, the next minute he is just a “dirty birdy” who needs to be punished for killing off her favorite character in his novels, Misery Chastain.
