I love this play. Yet a another show to add to my list if I make it to NYC in the spring of 2007.

I read this play in 7th grade. I loved it then, and I love it now, especially since I'm taking evolutionary biology

Riedel reported this a few months back.

I read this play on my own free time a few years ago. It was a masterpiece. So powerful. I'm sure Brian Dennehy and Christopher Plummer will do great.

Looking forward to this.

Which parts are they playing? My choice would be Dennehy as Drummond and Plummer as Brady, but something tells me it's the other way around. Anyone know?

The play, by the way, is far, far superior to the movie.

I still love the movie with Spencer Tracy in one of his greatest rolls

Fantastic play. This season should be incredible.

Plus a great excuse to go to New York with my 8th grade English teacher, who's the most amazing women ever. Okay, I'm done/

yeah i did this play last year. having done it...i thought it was kind of boring. although i was rev. brown so that was a kick. although the leads are fab. so it should earn them some tony noms.

The story in the link, billyweeds, confirms your suspicion that Plummer will be Drummond and Dennehy will be Brady.

I'm very excited for this. It's one of my all-time favorite plays. I can't wait to see Plummer and Dennehy tackle this.

[Mr Roxy]

Although During was fine in 1996 ( does not seem like 10 years) Dennehy will obviously be much better

i wonder if they'll elect to keep the Lyceum dark that whole time?
