'BEAU JEST' LEAVES QUESTIONS DANGLING
1995
Overview
The comedy by Chicago playwright James Sherman is the trite and trivializing conclusion to the Human Race Theatre Company's six-play season at The Loft, a season that promised theatergoers the kind of \"in your face\" stuff they can't get anywhere else. That's laughably untrue in this two-act sitcom treatment of interfaith romance and marriage in a Jewish family that has one foot rooted in tradition and the other seeking a toehold in contemporary American quicksand. The central character in this still-pertinent conflict is Sarah Goldman, an attractive young woman with a serious Gentile boyfriend her parents don't approve of, apparently just because he isn't Jewish. At least, that's the way Sarah sees it. And that's the way the audience is encouraged to see it as well.
