| I would certainly love to have seen all of those, but with the Lunts most of all in The Visit. I've read so much about their performances in that. Also, the original productions of Death of a Salesman (although I feel like the Nichols revival got a good deal of what I imagine its impact must have been originally, at least partly by using the Mielziner set) and Streetcar and the first Circle in the Square Iceman Cometh. I've never really loved Streetcar, and I have wondered if the original had things that have been missing from all the productions I've seen. One of those things would perhaps have been the Mielziner set. And, of course, the original productions of Carousel, The King and I and Gypsy. And the Jed Harris production of Uncle Vanya, and in England Jonathan Miller's production of Three Sisters. And this isn't even considering some of the famous Shakespeare productions of the past. And then there is Olivier in Oedipus Rex and The Critic. |
