The towering set that vaults above and plummets below the stage of Broadway's Brooks Atkinson Theater shows us fear on the inscrutable face of a perpendicular wall of stone and ice, pockmarked by eons. The hand-held camera that scales Designer Ming Cho Lee's awesome set is the playgoer's eye, restored to a 20/20 vision of the power, mystery, majesty and menace of undomesticated nature...
