REVIEW: Soulpepper’s The Comeuppance unpacks high-school reunions with deadly, millennial-aged precision

Macabre and drama-filled yet surprisingly gentle, The Comeuppance will probably be most compelling to the around-40 crowd who share its specific touchstones and millennial angst from a high-school experience bookended by Columbine and 9/11.
