Hilarity guaranteed at Bravo Theatre’s ‘play within a play’

“Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike” opened Thursday afternoon at the Bravo Theatre.  This is the kind of play that ultimately scores humorous points while simultaneously commenting on our society.  If you are a fan of theater you will recognize the characters’ names from works by Chekhov.  In this play, the writer Christopher Durang has taken a blender and whipped up a story that includes themes from “The Cherry Orchard” and “The Three Sisters.”    Uncle Vanya’s play within a play becomes a commentary on global warming and the shallowness of our electronic communications.
