Impressions of "Chéri"
"In a brilliant stroke, Martha Clarke casts prima ballerina assoluta Alessandra Ferri as Lea. Ferri, luminous and fine boned, captures the vulnerability swimming beneath the professional paramour’s polished surface. Chéri, played by Bessie winner Herman Cornejo responds to Ferri’s teasing seductions with fervent sensitivity." Erin Bomboy, New York, NY.
