re: Brantley's HAPPY DAYS review

Unlike the Homecoming production that I saw last week, this week's Happy Days is everything the review says it is. Quite stunning. Beckett is a giant talent compared to Pinter. Likewise, Fiona Shaw compared to Eve Best. And there is imagination in the staging at BAM.
If you have a choice, go to Brooklyn.
I would go out of my way to see Fiona Shaw, in anything.

re: THE HOMECOMING Reviews

For some reason in fifty years of involvement in literature and thirty years of theater-going, I had missed Pinter. Sure lots of great Beckett and enjoyable Mamet and Albee, but Pinter was missing. But here he was easily accessible.
I tend not to read reviews before I go. I feel I can understand a play without help. And I don't like to have a silly influence.
So now I have seen the play and then read the reviews and then read the comments here. What did I find?
