Darren Criss Headed back to Broadway!? — Page 4

agree with the "Rockwell and Fishburne were enough for me" thoughts. Rockwell was the best thing about Behanding, and was amazing in Fool For Love.



I just hope this isn't another one of Mamet's 65 minute plays.

I saw it in the early 1980s when it was revived on Broadway with Al Pacino. I'm not a Mamet fanboy, but it's a good play and an excellent example of the playwright's "poetry of profanity". If I lived in NYC, I'd go see it with the announced cast.

It's performed with an intermission, so I doubt it

Interesting.



The Cynic in me says that just means 2 25 minute acts, wtih a 15 minute intermission to get to that 65 minute length. But perhaps I'll be pleasantly surprised. Thanks for doing the legwork.

I think the running time is close to 90 minutes. I've always liked this play, for me it's right up there with "Speed the Plow", "Glengarry" and "Oleanna" (I wonder how "Oleanna" would play today). If these three actors- Criss, Fishburne and Rockwell, are at the top of their game, this is gonna be a must-see.
