Don't You F**king Say a Word Written by Andy Bragen Directed by Lee Sunday Evans Presented by Andy Bragen Theatre Projects at 59E59 Theaters, NYC November 4-December 4, 2016
Tennis, like any individual sport, isolates two people in a contest of focus and will, a push and pull of competition against one another but also against themselves. Andy Bragen's new comedy, Don't You F**king Say a Word, takes tennis as its structural conceit and thematic vehicle to great effect. Playing out on a white-lined, light blue set that evokes a tennis court folded up to create walls, Bragen's hilarious play creates a snapshot of two years in the friendship of a pair of New York City couples. After Kate (Jennifer Lim) and Leslie (Jeanine Serralles), who knew each other in college, have a chance encounter on the streets of New York, it does not take long before their respective boyfriends,...

1. The show tries to stay true to the original movie, and mostly succeeds.
2. Lindsey Shaw was attractive until I discovered she was from Nebraska.
3. There are times I actually did laugh, which is surprising considering I’m not the demographic.
4. However, the pop culture references do get to be a little much.
5. Meaghan Martin is still underage, and still more attractive than Lindsey Shaw only because she’s not from Nebraska.
6. Ethan Peck should have taken acting lessons from grandpa Gregory, and the only I reason I know those two are related is because Wikipedia says so.
7. Kyle Kaplan has some talent, he just needs to hone his timing.
8. Michael Braun is decent, but never quite recaptures that lovable ’80’s doofus.
9. Fans of the movie will be pleased with this adaptation, and everyone else might be pleasantly surprised with it.
10. Seriously, Lindsey Shaw was attractive until I discovered she was from Nebraska.
