What A Week On Broadway!
Four openings this past week: “Indecent,” Paula Vogel’s fascinating, very kinetic story of a classic in Yiddish theater; the “Groundhog Day” musical, whose merits were eclipsed by the injury of its brave leading man, Andy Karl; “The Little Foxes” revival, starring Laura Linney and Cynthia Nixon (I enjoyed the production, while wishing I’d seen Linney as Regina and Nixon as Birdie, instead of the reverse); and “Hello, Dolly!“. Why don’t they just hurl the Tony Award at Bette Midler right now and spare her the trouble of having to get prettied up for the awards ceremony?
