Theater Review: A cast of seasoned pros including JillEikenberry, MarkLinnBaker and RealJohnGlover star as old friends contemplating communal living in 'L.A. Law' actor MichaelTucker's comedy-drama, 'Fern Hill'
Depending on your age and social and marital status, your reaction to the new play by Michael Tucker, a three-time lead actor Emmy nominee for, about the friendship among three mature married couples, will experience afterwards, and that's a strong desire immediately to go home and cook.
As you might guess, that's also a bit of a problem for a work dealing with such weighty subjects as aging, friendship and marriage. There's plenty of fine, incisive writing on display, but the play too often attempts to sandpaper its interestingly rough edges with the sort of one-liners that make it feel like a sitcom pilot.
We soon learn that the friends, or at least most of them, have embraced Sunny's concept dubbed "The Commune Project." The idea is that they will all live together in the farmhouse , the better to face the health issues and indignities that will inevitably accompany their dotage years. "And when we need it, we pitch in and hire a caretaker to, you know, deal with the bedpans," Sunny explains.
