Broadway has a shortage of quality plays at the moment, not one play running has got the critic pick from The New York Times.

West End have been very successful transferring plays over to Broadway, just like you guys successfully transfer musicals over to the West End.

Does it really matter where a show originated? The only judgement that should be made is whether or show is enjoyable or not.

So when it opens here, just don't go. Problem solved.

"Saw this show last Saturday and I actually thought to myself that it's a very American type of play."

Gee, how do you figure? Other than the fact that it takes place in America, stars Ameican actors, and was written by an American playwrite, what could possible make it an American-type play?? :o)

I love when people make an extremely polarized post and expect everyone to agree, but it backfires. Hell yes this is rich.

Ha, yes, I was aware of that. I just meant that it wasn't really the type of play that I expected to see on the West End. Just the general "vibe" of it, which had nothing to do with the fact that the story takes place in NY and that the two leads are Americans.
