I think that's a tribute to David Cromer's direction and to the excellent cast. I really hope it finds an audience.Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16076517542540421210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912669500934497251.post-54087814819966201182009-10-30T00:06:52.278-04:002009-10-30T00:06:52.278-04:00Hey Jeff!

You've really got to make it seem like you're hearing what Stanley is telling you for the first time. I hope you're going to see Brighton Beach Memoirs because I'm interested to hear your opinion, too.Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16076517542540421210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912669500934497251.post-41842469167687597482009-10-30T00:03:56.367-04:002009-10-30T00:03:56.367-04:00Hey Pam,

And one thing I've learned is that there's great theatre everywhere - even in Pawtucket!<br /><br />I'm glad I wasn't disappointed, too. Sometimes you build these things up in your mind. But Brighton Beach Memoirs definitely came through, and in ways I didn't expect.Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16076517542540421210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912669500934497251.post-2852876236387000112009-10-29T18:16:06.786-04:002009-10-29T18:16:06.786-04:00So glad you enjoyed it every bit as much as I did ...So glad you enjoyed it every bit as much as I did (perhaps even more!).

I know it's not Broadway, but I'm really looking forward to it. They always do a good job and this is a show I'm really interested in.
