From Austin Arts Watch

"If you’re reading this trying to figure out if you should go see “Caught”, you almost definitely should. It’s a demanding play, that asks one to bring an open, questioning mind, so if you’re looking for a relaxing, thoughtless evening of entertainment, this might not be the show. For everyone else, though, this puzzle box of a work is well worth your time. Ken Webster is one of the few directors I’d trust to handle this behemoth, and his assistant director Mary Vo backs him up well; Mark Pickell’s sets are cleverly built and beautiful; Rebecca Robinson has never been better, bringing her sensitive intensity to a set of performances that would be demanding on any actor; Robert Pierson is hilarious, as always, making the most of his limited time on stage; and this couldn’t be a greater introduction for most audiences to Norman Tran and Esther Park who each take on some difficult roles with aplomb."

“it is a thought-provoking, brain-bending mind-f**k of a play where we are offered a labyrinthine exploration of truth, social justice, and cultural appropriation in contemporary art. And nothing is as it first appears.”

Come see us transform HPT into an art gallery for a show by a dissident Chinese conceptual artist, a man who was imprisoned and tortured for an art piece in which he organized an imaginary protest.

Or . . . perhaps that's what we're doing. The New York Times calls Caught, by Christopher Chen, an "intricately constructed, unrelentingly destabilizing puzzle of a play." The Los Angeles Times calls it "wildly inventive." The Chicago Tribune calls it "very funny." We think it's dazzling, disruptive, and unmissable.

Directed by Ken Webster, the show features Norman Tran, Esther Park, Rebecca Robinson, Robert Pierson, and Mary Vo. Tickets now on sale. hydeparktheatre.org
