Dorothy Parker's 1920s theatre reviews

They were influential enough to get her fired from Vanity Fair.
She could be quite savage. My favourite quotes from her reviews are:
"The House Beautiful is, for me, the play lousy."
"The only thing I didn’t like about The Barretts of Wimpole Street was the play."
Of Dame Edith Evans: "Edith looks like something that would eat her young."
