September 15 – October 7, 2001

“Rorschach’s fiesty young troupe has a knack for transforming untraditional spaces into great performance stages. As you take your seat, you kick crumpled newspapers and office memos, soda cans and other detritus – a dsquieting allusion to the current state of lower Manhattan. You can almost smell the stench.”
– Washington City Paper

Archibald McLeish’s J.B., a modern verse retelling of the Biblical book of Job, pits God and the Devil against one another for the ultimate prize, the faith of a good man.
