<DIV>Lumberob (Rob Erickson) is a singular phenomenon of language, looping and manic-obsessive performance intensity. Erickson's writing employs a syntax wholly his own, patterning words by working them through a physical obstacle course and so creating a performance text that really undoes any useful distinctions between language and embodiment. <I>Off the Hozzle</I> is lurching, digressing, doing-undoing, and unlike any other play.</DIV>
