Oh how we love Mr. Feingold. I wonder how Brantley will treat this one - it seems that this show, for the VERY little buzz it has had, is just "OK" to most - something that would work on television perhas - very sitcommy.

Very sitcom-like yes! Razz you hit the nail right on the head. Read my review, I'll bump it up! The show isnt as bad as some of these hoity toitys are making it out to be, but it isnt anything phenomanal though!

Kuchwara (AP) is mixed-to-negative (loved the first piece -- not crazy about anything else):

Variety is mostly Negative:
"It takes either audacity or lunacy to bill your work "about life in the new millennium" when your comic engine appears to have stalled in the 1970s. A lesbian who can only lead on the dance floor? A divorcee waiting for a man to call? A gay man sobbing through "The Wizard of Oz"? A swingers party with an aerobics instructor? Elaine May may not be resorting to mother-in-law jokes in her trio of new one-act plays, "After the Night and the Music," but her terrain is almost as far from the cutting edge.
Despite its fitful laughs and occasional reminders of the humorist's facility with a neurotica-fueled zinger, this slight offering of second-rate comic sketches looks like a fraudulent tenant in a Broadway house, perhaps even more so given the polished staging of Daniel Sullivan. While the cast is agreeable enough, the production's chief salvation comes via the staccato timing of J. Smith-Cameron, an always incisive actress deserving of better material."

I've LOVED Eddie Korbich since his hilarious turn in the terrible EATING RAOUL. Why hasn't anyone written a show for this BRILLIANT singer, actor, dancer. He's always great and deserves to be a star!
