there's a show over at the Duplex in the West Village about how Michael Riedel from the NY Post trashed Bernadette Peters in Gypsy. I hear it's supposed to be really funny. Has anyone seen it yet?

I saw it on Sunday night. It is hysterical. Lots of inside jokes about not only the Gypsy revival production's somewhat difficult trip to Broadway as well as just general NYC theater jokes. For anyone who knows what happened earlier this year, you will love it. If you didn't follow the saga you might just sit there and wonder why everyone around you is in hysterics. I definitely recommend it. I might have to go back before it closes.

Great, witty script and superb peformances.

it's a great deal of fun, and a little actor by the name of Michael Silva is someone to watch, so funny, reminded me of a young Joel Grey...wait a mintue, Joel Grey still reminds me of a young Joel Grey!

Did he play the paperboy? If so, yes he was hysterical. So was the young lady who played BP's assistant.

The ROLE of Bernadette's personal assistant is in it and is played by a very funny young actress. The woman who is actually her assistant in real life is not in the show.
