WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Harry is rich. Harry is married. But when Harry doesn't trust any of it is enough, he looks to find something real in the most unlikely of places. Paul Weitz's dark comedy Trust explores the corrosive effect of power on relationships and the hope we need to make them better.

RE:trust
This play was seen on 9/12/10 in the Second Stage Theater Midtown NYC: I had seen a write up on this play, prior to attending, which stated this play was in no way suitable for children. Although the subject matter was a bit adult, I had seen more provocative things in Spring Awakening. So if any of you are afraid of attending, due to content, don?t let this stop you from going. The writing of the play is very good, the subject matter is thought provoking and the significance of some of the plot twists you will not understand until later on, when you have a chance to think about it, but the acting left much to be desired. I admit that I went to this play simply because I was a fan of Zach Braff, from ?Scrubs?, and Bobby Cannavale, from ?Will & Grace?, but surprisingly their acting abilities let me down. The female roles were played by Sutton Foster and Ari Graynor, who are both beautiful women and striking in the S&M outfits, but neither actor was able to sell me on the characters they were supposed to be playing. The play failed to get a standing ovation from the audience, which is usually a good indication of the acting, but if you?re looking for an interesting evening, that will leave you talking, this play is for you.

Four people find themselves on irreversible journeys of self-discovery in Paul Weitz's dark comedy Trust, now playing at Second Stage Theatre. And while their crosscutting paths to their newfound awareness make for initially interesting theatergoing in this stylish production, helmed by Peter DuBois, the play ultimately falters as Weitz's plotting becomes increasingly convoluted.
It's a bit of kink that sets the generally frothy piece in motion: Harry (Zach Braff), an unhappily married nebbish -- who's become a multimillionaire from the sale of a dot.com he founded -- visits a dominatrix on a "whim." Their session doesn't go as either of them planned and soon, Harry, who's learned that t[...]
