What I liked

See above.

What I didn't like

A little bizarre that her down right action isn’t lit. She goes back there twice. The show’s been extended for one more performance … maybe a plug-in uplight?

My overall impression

Pure unadulterated highest quality vastly entertaining, brilliantly biting theater. Everything was extraordinary: The writing (not surprised to learn that Nicky Silver is Troy Deutsch’s friend and mentor); the direction (with a name like Tinks Lovelace, she must succeed or fail spectacularly — she succeeds) and the theatrical monster that is Kristina Mueller, who throws the whole shebang around her like stardust dancing through the hour with such skillful abandon that time whistles by. Bravo!
