WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
All the Rage is a darkly comic Jacobean Revenge Tragedy with shades of Robert Altman and Quentin Tarantino. When Warren shoots and kills a burglar, he sets in motion a chain of violent events that deeply affects ten interconnected lives. As the labyrinthine tale unfolds in an unnamed city, no one is safe from themselves or each other. Everybody has a gun and is ready to fire in this outrageous comedy.
All the Rage premiered at Chicago's Goodman Theatre in 1997 and won the Joseph Jefferson Award for New Work. Playwright Keith Reddin also wrote the screenplay to the movie, retitled It's the Rage. The film featured Joan Allen, Jeff Daniels, Andre Braugher, Anna Paquin, Josh Brolin and Gary Sinise and won seven awards at the Milan International Film Festival. Reddin's other plays include Brutality of Fact, Human Error, and Frame 312.

The cast is wonderful. The writing is tight. There are many surprises in store for the audience. See it!

Keith Reddin's All the Rage, making its New York premiere at Manhattan Theatre Source, has the kind of off-kilter characterizations that actors often relish. In Daryl Boling's uneven production, however, not all of the players are able to make the most out of the material they're given.
The show starts out as a murder mystery, with Warren (Greg Stuhr) standing over a dead body, gun in hand, and blood on his robe. While this should be an open and shut case, Warren maintains it was an accident and detectives Tyler (Steve Deighan) and Agee (Medina Senghore) are unable to prove otherwise -- especially after both murder weapon and body disappear.
However, Warren's guilt is only a small portion[...]
