I actually don't always agree with Brantley, but his review did help me better arrange my thoughts about the show, since I've been sort of struggling with that since seeing it on Thursday. I don't think I liked James as much as Brantley did, but I especially agree with his assessment of Gabriel Ebert, who I think was excellent.
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.
