Occupant

The Garry Marshall Theatre
4252 W Riverside Drive Burbank

Unapologetically flamboyant and fearlessly groundbreaking, iconic New York sculptor Louise Nevelson reveals her artistic triumphs and her tumultuous personal struggles in a most unconventional interview. Determined to be seen and heard in a predominantly male-driven medium, she muses on her sordid past in Edward Albee's poignant work about his friend, one of the most singular sculptors of the 20th century. Occupant is coming to the Garry Marshall Theatre in Burbank.

"...Small, finely wrought details abound in Heather Chesley's staging. Yet for all the terrific work that the director and her actors deliver, supported by the likes of set designer Stephen Gifford and costume designer Paula Higgins, the presentation proves fairly cerebral and insiderish. It doesn't help that Nevelson isn't asked to talk about her art until well into the second half."

"...There's almost no accompanying musical score so the fact that the play is so pale isn't even rectified by music, other characters or even props. Liebman, surprisingly, has a juicier role as the interviewer because he both idolizes Louise but can't help to want to tear her down. Hackett's Louise is too hollow to leave the impression she needs to consider the entire project revolves around her life and her life force. Nevelson deserves a better homage because it is indeed a life worth examining."
