Christopher Plummer's A WORD OR TWO--Ahmanson

Posted by: showtunetrivia 06:32 pm EST 01/22/14

Daughter Rebecca and I saw Plummer's one-man show, directed by Des McAnuff, last night and were thoroughly charmed. It's a celebration of words, of Plummer's lifelong love of language, eighty glorious minutes of everything from Shaw to Shakespeare, from Oscar Wilde to Oscar Levant, from Dylan Thomas to Professor Irwin Corey and A.A. Milne.

Just Plummer, a couple of chairs, a lectern, a desk, and an enormous, curving tower of books. He didn't do Lear, but he did do Cyrano and Hamlet, which thrilled me to bits.

Runs through Feb. 9.
