| Howard Miller takes a look at Fire in Dreamland: A promise to a dying parent and an unfortunate propensity for latching onto other peoples dreams has led a woman down a series of blind alleys in search of her own lifes passion. Will a chance meeting with a charming stranger help her to find a purpose at last, or will this be yet another fumbling misstep? That is the premise of Fire in Dreamland, Rinne Groffs choppy but nonetheless intriguing and well-acted play opening tonight at the Public Theater. . . . |

| Jaap, who is around 40 and some ten years older than Kate Is this described in the script? Because unless I missed something, I certainly didn't get this watching the play, given that Enver Gjokaj is only a bit more than a year older than Rebecca Naomi Jones. Seth, who thought the play had flashes of brilliance trapped inside a really dull plot |

| Flashes of brilliance, yes. But let's get down to brass tacks. Basically, it was Jaap hustling saps! Kate is an absurdly spineless jellyfish in his presence. Lance is smitten and spellbound. I was just mad as hell that he got away with all he did. He was their Hurricane Sandy! Let's go Dutch, suckers! Played like violins at the Met, Seth. | |
