“#8230 one of a handful of great plays written in the last
five years …it’san astonishingly beautiful piece of
writing …#8221 —Stve Wiecking, Seattle
Weekly“Onan inauspicious morning at a Dutch library, a
librarian makes an unexpected find in the overnight return box
…a much mistreated Baedeker’sguidebook 123
years overdue. Even without compound interest, this tardiness
merits a tidy fine, and in UNDERNEATH THE LINTEL,
playwright Glen Berger’slatest, our librarian hero
determines to track down the miscreant.
Berger’smonologue, subtitled ‘ThMystery of the
Abandoned Trousers,’hardly slacks. Mailing a fine to
the long-lived scofflaw in question proves difficult, as the
borrower listed his name only as ‘A’In an effort
to run him to earth, the librarian, who has never left his native
town of Hoofddorp, zips to China, Australia, Germany, and
America. He eats sweets, greases palms, sees Les Miserables
in three languages, and fritters away all his accumulated
vacation days. He has the time of his life, or perhaps for the
first time actually has a life.”—Alxis Soloski, The
Village Voice“Beger has shown a penchant for men
obsessively investigating truths that blind them to more
ordinary pursuits of happiness. This one-man show is no
exception. It’sa satisfying mix of intelligent writing and
quirky humor in a package that isn’tneatly wrapped up
with pat answers.”—Jaa J Monji, Los Angeles
Times“Gln Berger’swork feels like what an entire
generation of playwrights have been struggling to
write.”—Brt Fetzer, The Stranger (Seattle)
