You Can Skip It
In the half-hour monologue “Pineapple Kryptonite,” Eric Eichenlaub gives a glimpse into his childhood, tepidly presenting mundane scenes such as stealing a shopping cart from a department store where he worked and developing his interest in various genres of rock music. But had he interspersed his surface-level anecdotes with more concrete details about the music he liked, the town he hailed from and the allure of the store where he worked, it might have become more clear why these memories are important to him.
Presented by Eric Eichenlaub at Strike Theater; 7 p.m. Aug. 7, 5:30 p.m. Aug. 9, 7 p.m. Aug. 10
