CHANGE IS COMING

 

Everyone wonders at one time or another what they're mean for. We wonder why we're here, why bad things happen to good people, why the bad guys always win and mostly we wonder why we can never have answers. For John his scenario leaves him a wreck looking for a purpose, something that gives rational thought to his own life. Through this he questions why religion is a crutch when it comes to looking for the hard answers to the tough questions and all he can do is absorb everyone else's purpose for living and try to figure out where he's going in life. What John is is a microcosm for everyone else in life who have gone adrift waiting for some form of stability to guide them to their ultimate calling.

Unfortunately all he can do is weather the storm of trite observations and damaging human relationships while also being bombarded by painfully saccharine religious one liners that always seem to hurt more than help. John is us and through him we begin to wonder what he does and ponder on his own quest for self exploration. John is an infinite man in a maze looking for the correct path to the enlightenment and self worth that most of us rarely ever feel.  

Clayton Myers is a great casting choice as he properly conveys the sheer frustration of a man without an identity. Jason Baustin's direction is seamless and derives the proper tone to keep "Change is Coming" a well paced straight laced existential drama that will leave audiences questioning their own sense of contribution to society.

We all wonder what we're meant to do in life and for some the purpose is always a mystery we're unable to unfold. Baustin accomplishes existentialism and philosophy with near perfection.
