Featured review

10/10

Great production. Amazing rare opportunity to see Tommy Lee Jones on stage!

This is one of the biggest dreams of my life - seeing Tommy Lee Jones on the theater stage. I used to try to imagine what he was like when he worked in the theater. But it was useless to make it up - Tommy is always so different! On stage, he is so cool! He is incendiary! He is brilliantly! He's sparkling! He is impressive! He is so funny! He is groovy! And he takes incredible pleasure in what he does! At the same time, none of the actors who worked with him in this production was in the shadows - each was strong, bright and very believable! Great performance! I really liked it!
