Performing Arts: Theatre Personality Crisis

Academia and egomania collide in Rick Mitchell's Personality Crisis, a play that takes aim at the recent phenomenon of authors seeking celebrity. Inspired by the JT LeRoy saga — in which a hetero female writer poses as a gay hustler to grab hype for her book — Mitchell succeeds in selling audiences both sides of the story: the resourcefulness of buzz-guzzling writers and the hypocrisy of a literary world driven by high-profile hype. Megan Lee Ethridge is mesmerizing as Trixie, an English major who writes her own history by throwing Hollywood and the publishing world a controversial curve.
