A FEW GOOD MEN Previews

Can Broadway handle the truth?

We’ll find out tomorrow (October 8), when the first revival of Aaron Sorkin’s military drama A Few Good Men starts up at the Vivian Beaumont Theatre. Bradley Whitford and Tom Blyth lead the company as lieutenants Jessup and Kaffee; also in the large principal cast are Stephanie Berry, Nick Blaemire, Michael Braugher, Christopher Gurr, Billy Eugene Jones, Collin Kelly-Sordelet, Shunté Lofton, Michael Oberholtzer, Krysta Rodriguez, Lavel Schley, Thom Sesma, Daniel Velez, and John Zdrojeski. A Few Good Men opens on October 29 and runs until January 10; Michael Arden directs.

“Military lawyer Daniel Kaffee is known for his wit, charm, and uncanny talent for closing cases before they ever get to trial. When assigned to defend two young Marines accused of murder, his typical strategy is upended by Lt. Commander JoAnne Galloway, a sharp attorney determined to prove the men’s innocence. But the evidence soon leads them to a cover-up, putting them on a collision course with the entire chain of command.”

Who’s excited for this one?

A FEW GOOD MEN Previews

I’ll be there next Tuesday and looking forward to it. I’m mostly curious to see how Michael Arden and his design team use the Beaumont’s expansiveness. This isn’t a play that screams “deep stage and high fly space” to me, but I’m always interested to see what directors do with the space.

Yes so curious to see what he does with that space and budget.

More curious what Dane Laffrey (Set) will do with the space - and how Ricky Ubeda is staging the show - and it's musical staging - on Laffrey's set.

I'm glad I decided to wait until previews start to see how sightlines were. For these prices they better be downstage of those steps 95% of the show.

There’s no running time listed on the LCT or Telecharge webpages as of now. I tried asking a Telecharge customer service representative, to no avail.

Re: A FEW GOOD MEN Previews

People already asking for refunds before a first preview? BWW at its finest, never change ;) Set looks good, but not necessary for a brilliant show in that space like Ragtime.

And the show is 2 hours and 30 minutes with a 15 minute intermission.

Considering a refund for theoretical sightlines based on a single set photo of a show that starts previews in an hour and a half. Hilarious stuff.

Re: A FEW GOOD MEN Previews

I’m sure they use the thrust stage mostly. I wouldn’t be too worried.

I'm sure it's not THAT bad.

Re: A FEW GOOD MEN Previews

This, like RAGTIME, has a lengthy list of commercial co-producers involved, including No Guarantees and the three commercial producers of the Ragtime revival (Tom Kirdahy, Lamar Richardson, Kevin Ryan). Commercial partners are increasingly the norm at nonprofits, and it happened during Andre's tenure too, but it's surprising when there are that many on a limited-run play revival.

Given the title, maybe they see potential in it as a rare play that could tour.

Re: A FEW GOOD MEN Previews

Me, I'm still trying to figure out why this talky, flimsy play--a big hit in a lean season--is deserving of a revival. Just do the Caine-Mutiny Court Martial, for God's sake. It's about a hundred times better.

So much fuss to have an audience walk out talking how it worked so much better as a movie.

Lear Debesonett wants big known titles to make money so she looks like a good artistic director.

Honestly the big question I have is should I watch the 1992 film before going into this production?
