I saw this last night and was so pleasantly surprised. The production itself was so well done, and the play itself was extremely enjoyable and funny and poignant.
Annaleigh Ashford gave a phenomenal performance. Her physicality and personification of a dog was so spot on and I was able to really connect to Sylvia. Robert Sella was the other standout for me. He is so hilarious throughout all of his three parts and he had the audience in an uproar. Julie White was terrific and played the character so well that I was able to sympathize with her character in what could be considered a thankless role. And the shock of the night was Matthew Broderick. He did not sleep walk at all and gave a compassionate and humorous performance that was really compelling. He seemed like he was having a great time up there.
I would really recommend this play to people, as I feel bad it's not really getting a large audience. I think it just falls from bad marketing and little buzz. By the way, if anyone's interested all actors stage doored last night and signed and took pictures. They were all so nice, except Broderick didn't really seem to have much of a personality (that's just good ole' Matt for ya'
but was still nice to everyone nonetheless.
