saw it tuesday night, loved it. i'd forgotten who good a night in the theatre could be when seeing a writer's work who really relishes language. i thought there was not a weak performance in the bunch, the sets were pretty snazzy and they had a few jaw dropping light cues. yeah, some of the material is a bit dated, but hearing it in today's environment was quite interesting. but aside from the philosophy, the humor was enough to make me nearly wet myself on multiple occasions.
of course, it's been a while since i saw a really good play that loves words the way stoppard does. that and i am a big fan, so i may be looking with a jaundiced eye. there were a plenty of people there who did not share my opinion and it did not get a standing ovation, which i was sure would bring about armageddon.
