NY Review: 'How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying'
Director-choreographer Rob Ashford talked Daniel Radcliffe into trying his hand at musical comedy. Alas, the likable and undeniably talented lad is in over his head.
Director-choreographer Rob Ashford talked Daniel Radcliffe into trying his hand at musical comedy. Alas, the likable and undeniably talented lad is in over his head.
Director Arin Arbus, star John Douglas Thompson, and a uniformly fine cast electrify this no-frills, no-sense production of the Bard's most psychologically satisfying play.
Consisting of slim, movielike scenes and built on a situation so unique that it squelches any wider resonance, "Boy" never gathers enough steam to generate appreciable dramatic force.
