Review: Love Without Mercy, Sans Merci is another knockout from local Black Ice Theatre Company
Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 08/30/2019 - 10:35am
There is theater, there is poetry, and then there is Sans Merci. There is sequence about one hour into the play Sans Merci, playing at the Duke Theater at Lake Tahoe Community College, that breathlessly and perfectly encapsulates the beauty of live theater, and it does so in shear silence. It is easy for a play to make you cry with dramatic dialogue. I have never had a play break me down to my core without a single word uttered on stage for several minutes as happens in Sans Merci.
