| What a moment for Crowley. He and his play were pariahs, or near, at least in some circles, for a couple of decades (though it never disappeared, and the film was always both covertly and publicly revered). For this to come full circle, and to Broadway, is a remarkable kind of ... closure? Karma? And to be played by an out company, making the production a statement in and of itself. Though some of these actors comment on the play as a marker for a bad time, most seem to suggest its relevance in 2018 is more complicated than that. If it's half as entertaining as the original, particularly the first half, this will be the ticket of the season. | |

| The movie is terrible, which is why I have no desire to see this. It's horribly dated, and I just didn't care about any of these characters. | |

| My introduction to THE BOYS IN THE BAND was the film and I think it's one of the finest pieces of ensemble acting in cinema. I care about all of Crowley's characters and I'm looking forward to seeing the play's Broadway premiere with much anticipation. | |
