“The Effect”: U-M Basement Arts
Mar. 21 & 22. Jeff Wagner directs fellow U-M students in English playwright Lucy Prebble’s 2012 psychological comedy-drama about a pair of volunteers who fall in love during a clinical trial and question whether their newfound passion is natural or a side effect of an experimental drug. “The arguments that fuel Prebble’s rapid-fire dialogue demonstrate a razor wit,” says New York Times theater critic Naveen Kumar in a review of a Broadway revival last year. “She excels at articulating ineffable states of feeling.” 7 p.m. (Fri. & Sat.) & 11 p.m. (Fri.), U-M Walgreen Drama Center Studio 1, 1226 Murfin.
