Posted: 11/20/03 at 11:51pmI think these are the best reviews I've read so far this season... the NY Times, the Post, and Broadway.com are raving about this at Lincoln Center Theater, especially Kevin Kline as Falstaff. Has anyone seen it yet? I have tix for next Saturday... I wasn't sure about sitting through a 4 hour play but now I can't wait!

Posted: 11/20/03 at 11:54pmIsn't Kline a Broadway darling? Has he ever received a bad review?
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Gotham,
Read the Frank Rich review of his Hamlet.
Luckily, I worked late and read some of the reviews, so I went online and snagged a seat for next week's Wed. Matinee. 8th row center!!!

Make sure to read and digest as much as possible the 4 page program note insert. It will help you understand who everyone is and what their relationship is. It is very dense.
My only regret is that I did not until after the show.
Have fun.

Posted: 11/21/03 at 2:19pmI'd really like to see Ethan Hawke in the show, as well as Kevin Kline. Wow, it's a long show though: 3 acts, so it will be worth the money!

Posted: 11/21/03 at 4:18pmOne of the first movies I saw him in was Dead Poet's Society, and that was not too long ago, but he was like 17 or something in that movie. And plus, I'd like to see a traditional play like Henry IV.

Posted: 11/21/03 at 11:24pmWhen I met him after the show, he looked gaunt. Perhaps all the tabloid stories are getting to him?
