| I agree mediocre productions now two years in a row. Friends walked up 20 minutes before show and got good seats. They had enough by intermission and left. They saw Hamlet at the Park Avenue Armory and wanted to see this production to compare. The answer was: they walked. | |

| with Shakespeare, Chekhov, Comden/Green/Bernstein, Brecht, Gilbert and Sullivan, Moliere, Rupert Holmes, Wilder, Ragni/Rado/MacDermot, Euripides, and Sondheim/Lapine. Not a single one dumbed down or edited to shreds. Who's luckier than us?! | |

| What a lovely post. Thank you. And to think of the actors and performers I’ve seen there — Raul Julia, Kevin Kline, Meryl Streep, Donna Murphy, Lily Rabe, Amy Adams, Al Pacino, Anne Hathaway, Audra McDonald, Raul Esparza, Linda Ronstadt, Estelle Parsons, Michael Moriarty, Blythe Danner, Jerry Stiller, Cleo Laine, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Hamish Linklater, George Rose, Sam Waterston, James Earl Jones, Liev Schreiber, Andrew Burnap, William Hurt, Oscar Isaac, Patrick Dtewart, Billy Crudup, Jennifer Ehle … and those are just the ones who immediately come to mind. I hope that the restoration of the Delacorte will lead to another “golden age.” | |
