Review by Brenda Repland

In its 28th season, titled the Season of Dissent, The Metropolitan Playhouse has once again plucked a play from the past that so resonates with our current situation as to be either a caution or an encouragement.  Coming, as it does, in the season of Epiphany, only demonstrates how hard-won some understandings may be.

In Robert Ardrey’s “ghost story” from 1939, David Charleston (Jed Peterson) an American journalist, has just returned from covering the Spanish Civil War.  His once-genial demeanor has been eroded to a cynical acquiescence.  “I’ve rejected a world I cannot help.  I’m creating a new one.”

He has become a recluse/lighthouse keeper on a tiny island on northern Lake Michigan.  There, he conjures what he imagines were the personalities of victims lost ninety years earlier on a packet boat accident.  But as the “victims” come to life, they disabuse him of many of his assumptions about them.  Their message:  Optimism is not futile!  Pessimism is a dangerous waste.  Face the world’s hardships with candor but respond with hope!

The play was first staged by Elia Kazan on Broadway and made the author’s name in London.  Opening on the West End in 1940, it played through the Blitz to audiences who kept gas masks under their seats.  Winston Churchill called it “the greatest contribution to British morale there has yet been.”  After the war, it brought a new inspiration to a war-ravaged Berlin.  

Typical of plays directed by Alex Roe, there are no weak spots. The company is excellent. Jed Peterson delivers a commanding performance capped with a breath-taking moment of his epiphany.  

Running through February 8.  (Box Office 800-838-3006)

‘Thunder Rock’ Review: A Beacon That Fails to Light the Way

A play that’s a smash on one side of the Atlantic is sometimes a flop on the other, and the reasons can be hard to pin down. But when London threw its arms around Robert Ardrey’s Broadway reject “Thunder Rock” in 1940, timing had a lot to do with it — that and a cast led by a young Michael Redgrave.

Already at war, people there were in need of bucking up, and “Thunder Rock” provided that with its story of a wounded idealist who retreats from a world that is verging on self-destruction, only to have a band of ghosts reignite his spirit and send him back into the fray. Maybe Elia Kazan’s New York production, in late 1939, fizzled because Americans didn’t yet sense much danger.

Might the play feel more urgent now, in these fever-pitch times? That perfectly reasonable possibility seems to be the catalyst for Alex Roe’s revival at Metropolitan Playhouse — a regrettably fitful, stilted staging that muffles most of the humor and humanity of this creaky, peculiar play.

Ardrey’s themes are enduring enough, though: creeping nationalism, rising isolationism, the despair that descends when one is unable to see a way through current troubles to a better future, or any future at all.

Such is the predicament of David Charleston (Jed Peterson), the hero of “Thunder Rock.” A journalist who once bestrode the world, he lost not only his objectivity but also his hope when he covered the Spanish Civil War.

Back home, he has turned quasi-hermit, keeping a lighthouse on a tiny island in Lake Michigan, where he gets visitors once a month, when his pilot friend, Streeter (Jamahl Garrison-Lowe, in the role James Mason played in the movie), flies in supplies.

“It’s a privilege, my boy, living in the world today,” Streeter tells Charleston, sardonically. “It’s a storybook, sheer stark drama. How’s everything going to come out?”

Charleston wants not to care about the answer to that question, but his idealism isn’t dead, only dented. So he does what many of us do in dire times: He looks to history for solace, to see how humankind has survived thus far.

A plaque on the wall of the lighthouse (the set is by Vincent Gunn) describes a shipwreck off the island 90 years before, and Charleston has found the list of drowned passengers — European immigrants in search of a safer, more prosperous existence. These are the ghosts he conjures to keep him company, and talk him back into relishing life.

In a spotty cast that includes a fine Thomas Vorsteg as a disillusioned Spanish Civil War veteran, Peterson brings an appealing naturalness to Charleston, whose most vivid ghosts are the British women’s rights activist Miss Kirby (Teresa Kelsey) and the Viennese doctor Stefan Kurtz (Howard Pinhasik).

“There is a time, I presume,” Kurtz says, “in every man’s life when the lights grow dim and the battle seems lost, and he needs all the dead men of history to arise, and to assure him with a single united voice that battles can be won.”

That may be true, and certainly Ardrey meant his play to be a beacon in encroaching darkness. But the battle for “Thunder Rock” has been lost again this time around.

Thunder Rock
