Review: The Lyons
Nicky Silver's The Lyons is the newest entry into a genre that can only be described as "wealthy white people being mean to one another." While superbly acted by the six-member company, slickly directed by Mark Brokaw, and, occasionally, outrageously funny in its cutting humor, what The Lyons lacks is a deeper meaning underneath the façade of the characters' irredeemable awfulness.
