Wow, that seemed like a really quick preview period.

It'll probably have a second life in regional theaters.

Can't say I'm surprised by these so far.

Oh yeah, this will be done by every dinner theater in the states.

I thought this was a silly blast.

"Perhaps if Tonya appeared in the play, this would all be in bad taste. Perhaps if we had a sense that the Klan meant anything to Mr. Grisham outside of an embodiment of pure evil—it might as well have been moon Nazis who raped the girl—there would be the sickening feel of exploitation to A Time to Kill. But because it is so divorced from reality, because it has as much legal accuracy as the Hepburn and Tracy movie Adam’s Rib, it gets away with its emotional manipulation. It brings us back to childhood, when racism really was a clear-cut issue, when bigots (them) belonged in one camp and liberals (us) in another. And really, who doesn’t love feeling the powerful rage of naiveté? Just don’t take it outside of the theater when the play is over."

And that is okay. Not every show is cut out for a long run.

This book turned movie turned play is nearly 25 years old, but does John Grisham's A Time To Kill still stand up in court? Find out if this legal drama is worth your legal tender in our full video review.

I'm waiting for the musical version. It simply cries out for a rousing tap routine in the second act.

We still want to see a musical version of Tom Clancy's RAINBOW SIX VEGAS!
