To those interested in seeing this, it's strictly for Fugard fans. Slow-moving and without much action, it's mostly a tone piece that comments on the ramifications of Apartheid on individuals' psychologies. There is some interesting dialogue and it mostly holds the attention for the 2-hour (intermission-less) runtime, but it's never exceptional. Perhaps a different director could find a more life-filled production.
Just got an email today that tonight’s (3/6/19) performance has been cancelled:
“We regret to inform you that today's evening performance of Athol Fugard's Boesman and Lena has been cancelled due to an actor injury.
To re-book your tickets for a future date, please contact Ticket Services at 212-244-7529 or email ticketservices@signaturetheatre.org. Office hours are 11:00am-6:00pm, Tuesday - Sunday. Boesman and Lena is currently running through March 24, 2019.
We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to see you back at The Pershing Square Signature Center soon.
Best, David Hatkoff Director of Marketing and Audience Services”
