I saw this today. Had lunch at Triumph beforehand and decided to leave my car there. It is not a far walk as others said. 5-7 minutes total. And at $1/hour, a much better deal.
As for the production...wow, Durang is bad in this. Always seemed a second away from blowing his lines, and the big monologue was delivered with absolutely no passion or conviction. It seemed as if he wasn't invested in anything other than remembering what to say. Marilu Henner was good, but she lacked the star quality that Weaver (and even Julie White) brought to the role. The Sonia was fine, but her performance was very close to Kristine Nielsen's. Almost cribbing. The Spike, Nina, and Cassandra were all underwhelming.
Also--if anyone from BCP happens to read this--tell your staff to be quiet while the show is up. Throughout the second act, there was a ton of loud, sustained noise being made in the lobby that could easily be heard inside the auditorium. People who work in theatre should know to not make excessive noise during a performance, especially in an old theatre with paper-thin walls.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
-John Guare, Landscape of the Body
