Posted: 6/1/11 at 11:18pmCharlie Rose is such a great show - it was his show that made me want to see Fences last year. I love it when he has theatre panels!

Actually, PJ, since Kramer puts the most strident and wrong-headed commentary in her character's mouth, she wasn't a reason I loved the show. I loved the show for Mantello and the design and the ensemble work and most emotionally wrenchingly, Patrick Breen's Mickey Marcus.
ETA looks like Hickey's there instead of Mantello. LOVED Hickey.
ETA after viewing: Thank god for George C. Wolfe.

Posted: 6/2/11 at 6:20pmAn interesting enough discussion, I thought. But where does the title of the play come from? The three guests didn't seem to know. I'll be watching Larry Kramer when he's on in a few weeks - I've had all sorts of impressions of him from other people, so I'll have a chance to make up my own mind.

Thank you so much Namo. I just watched the show on the Charlie Rose site. So glad I got to see this production while in the city. I am also a big fan of Hickey. He could have done without bringing up his 5 broadway shows twice...
