Basil K. Kreimendahl's world premiere play packs a lot in a little. And the form gets in the way. The 75-minute piece is relentlessly non-linear -- it jumps and morphs from mini-scene to mini-scene -- and is often hard to follow. The subject, however, is as relevant as they come. Julius is dying from exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam. His daughter, Nut, who finds her personal inclinations in conflict with traditional women's roles, wants to re-connect with Julius. So in her mind, she goes to Vietnam and fights alongside. Jeffrey Jones (Julius) and Rae K. Henderson (Nut) turn in excellent performances as a father and daughter coming together as death pulls them apart. Worth a try.
