“In an isolated Russian city, four performers are broadcasting a live 1940's-style radio program about a teenage love triangle in Iowa. Over the course of the broadcast and its technical difficulties, the audience gets tantalizing hints of the world outside the radio station, an alternate present in which massive robots have destroyed North America and have already damaged Russia. The pleasures of Samuel & Alasdair come from the simple yet haunting clues dropped by the skilled performers the Mad Ones, allowing viewers to imagine the details of the play's ominous outside world. The show is memorable, fresh, and original.”
