| Travanti is terrific. Anyone who loves good acting should catch this production. ---TheaterManiaSweetly Amusing. Mr. Safdie writes FUNNY dialog, and he is to be admired for the strength of his convictions. Played with ease and good humor by the “Hill Street Blues” star Daniel J. Travanti. ---New York TimesClever. Good staging, good set, good everything. Travanti plays Grunwald with lip-smacking relish. A superior piece of acting. This is, amazingly enough, Mr. Travanti's New York stage debut. I don't know what took him so long to get here, but I sure hope he sticks around.
---Wall Street JournalHilarious and entertaining. A strong, natural chemistry in this two-man cast.
---Associated PressA spirited conversation about the art of drama. Travanti delivers a performance of sly wit.
---New York Post
Travanti delivers a vivid portrait of an aging and angry writer. Under Alex Lippard's intelligent direction, Travanti and Green elicit every ounce of humor and pathos. One welcomes Daniel Travanti to the New York stage and hopes he decides to stay.---The Hollywood Reporter Funny! Travanti projects refined intelligence and a lot of wiry energy. Green plays Artz with savvy understanding of the awkward complexity of youth. ---Variety Travanti delivers each side of the old codger's personality with aplomb. Equally adept is Adam Green as Len, an NYU playwriting student who's come to Henry's office for a job interview. ---Village Voice RECOMMENDED! Travanti gives a thoughtful and balanced portrayal. ---Los Angeles Times CRITICS PICK! ... a masterful performance. ---BackStage Theatre at St. Clement's 423 West 46th Street, NYC January 30 - March 11, 2007 Tuesdays - Saturdays at 8PM Wednesdays and Saturdays at 2PM Sundays at 3PM For tickets and information: ONLINE: www.ticketcentral.com TELEPHONE: 212.279.4200 IN PERSON: Ticket Central Box Office 416 West 42nd Street Open Daily Noon - 8PM Produced by Les Gutman and Elizabeth Cockrell in association with Friendly Fire and Lynn Shaw Productions Set Design: Michael V.
