Hated the costumes. Hated the lighting. Really, really hated the cube thing and watching the poor actors sweat like stevedores shoving blocks around. And despite the postshow segment on the scenic design, I wasn't moved or suddenly breathless by the appearance of furniture near the end. I was just irked. I said to my daughter, "Oh, now we get chairs?" In the interview (wish
I recorded it), I think Block said something like the cube goes away when "reality" comes in. Huh?
It's still a brilliant work.
