A satire of literary academia, Beyond the Pale centers on an eccentric 13th year grad student in English named Sasha Plotzkin, who is unable to finish his dissertation and faces expulsion unless he can make a name for himself at an upcoming academic conference—though he isn’t invited. His passion, the subject of the conference, is reclusive JD Nochpynne’s 1000 page opus Pale Queen of Night, a controversial work amongst the academic community who can’t even agree on the pronunciation of the author’s name. Hargrove’s off-beat performance reminds you of Andy Kauffman playing “Andy” and Fanucchi’s own years teaching at the University of Michigan help to make this a lovingly awkward parody.
