In Can I Help You?, theatre group Exploding Moment has created a fascinating new dramatic structure, and the results are completely chilling. Two actors sit at the back of the stage, narrating and editing video footage of a new reality-TV show set in an emergency room; elsewhere, three other actors act out the footage, complete with pauses and rewinds. The nightmarish show integrates actual video as well, creating a living web of instantaneous media and analysis. Rarely does the incorporation of technology feel this seamless; it's well worth the L train trip to farthest Bushwick.
