1. With a motion that wriggles.

   But Ms. Reza’s and Mr. LaBute’s plays strike me as the hairy beasts in this foursome; they’re alert, pushy works in which words are hurled like poison darts. Mr. Foote’s and Mr. Kaufman’s are calmer, more self-conscious and a bit less wrigglingly alive, at least on the page.
