'Fool for Love' at Round House, taking the edge off Shepard

Like a faded postcard, "Fool for Love" at Round House Theatre has capably captured that vintage Sam Shepard desperation-at-the-edge-of-the-desert look. Meghan Raham's set deliberately cramps the actors in a grubby little wedge of a room, with plenty of American West barrenness outside. Inside, a rough-looking couple -- a Marlboro Man and a petite firecracker of a woman, both in denim -- glower at each other, locked in melancholy combat.
