They should just pay Maya whatever she wants and have her come back to the end of the run. 
 

With Cheyenne, of course  

Maya Rudolph for the win. 
 

Suffered through this show twice with Cole and didn’t laugh once. (Went back because I thought I must be missing something. I wasn’t)

 

This is not Medea. Or even Madea. But Rudolph made it a crazy, genius Romp. I was giggling constantly through the show. And her audition segment was side-splitting. 
 

Kudos to the rest of the cast too, especially Cheyenne Jackson.

I do wish they had done something fresh with the Bear Back Story.  Every time we have to deal with his story, the show stops.  

I saw this last night, too
 

Was this even a show?

 

Daniel Radcliffe running around for an hour 15. With very little pay off at the end.    

 

What a rip off - At outrageous prices.

they already have all the "name" they need: Paddington"

 

And that's the problem with the show.  The Bear, and his story, stops the show cold everytime he shows up.  Why couldn't they create a PADDINGTON show where they assume we already know the

Yes! But I’d also like Victoria Hamilton-Barritt to transfer!"

 

She was phenomenal.  Too bad she can't transfer.  

 

I DO, I DO ...  obviously...

The actor does a good job at bouncing through all the different parts.


But in the end, it’s kind of a meh. As Frank says: “No real muscle.”

It was a workmanly production.  Not much spark (except for Metcalf, but her spark belonged in another play).

Lane is fine, I guess, for Willy, but I like a Willy who we believe was once a "force" and who has now deflated.  Lane is more like a pushy, reedy, bore who a company would be glad to let go. 

Metcalf is playing Mother Courage.  All strong, towering effectiveness.  But why does she put up with Willy who is constantly beratin

Just FYI:

 

The Winter Garden was the venue for the glorious 1972-73 MUCH ADO starring Sam Waterston and Kathleen Widdoes.

While its meaning is not immediately clear- is it the cases and deaths, is it the "numbers game" discussed at several points, is it a lone voice trying to stop a deluge- there's enough in the transcript that allows you to find some meaning and give it power."
