"...the criticism of the transfer of the production no one's seen yet..." This objection is so tiresome. I was commenting on Harvey Fierstein's quotes about how he is rewriting the show, and about the fact that people involved with Menier Chocolate Factory productions always go on about how whatever show they are doing is going to be improved by a cheap, bare-bone presentation with a tiny orchestra. Some judgments about a production can be made based on known facts and upon statements made in advance by the creative team, as was certainly the case with PORGY AND BESS.
