A ‘domestic phantasmagoria with song and dance, ‘ John Crutchfield’s My Crazy My Love, set in a small, present-day Southern Appalachian town, in a sprawling house in condemnable disrepair, tells the raucous comic story of one family’s failure to know itself. Only the impending death of the Finckelsteins’ patriarch can offer some hope of eleventh-hour self-recognition and redemption. Or not.
