Now I didn't see Fool For Love so I can't speak with the voice of knowledge here but everything I've read said the production is ready for Broadway. (I want Nina Arianda and Sam Rockwell together on Broadway-I can't imagine a more electric pairing. They are both really energetic, charismatic actors. I could only imagine the heat they burned on that stage.) I say MTC could pick it up for their spring selection and pair it with another one act.

It's quite possible that with more preparation and rehearsal, Arianda and Rockwell might very well find the chemistry that Gerard feels that they presently lack. Like most summer stock theatres, rehearsal time at WTF is short and runs are even shorter.

Another 3 weeks in a rehearsal studio and a few previews may be all they need to get the play firing on all cylinders.

I agree with this. But I also think the reviewer is being a bit picky here. Yes, I guess the two could have had more chemistry, now that I think about it, but it did not stand out as a problem. And it could well be that the chemistry will get stronger over a longer run.

I also don't think that Fool for Love needs to be paired with another play. Yes, it is a bit short, but not unusually so, especially since 90 minute running times are so common these days. I felt like I got my money's worth.
