Italian American ReconciliationWhat? From Google Books: "Huey Maximilian Bonfigliano has a problem: while he is safely divorced from his shrewish wife, he feels he cannot regain his "manhood" until he woos and wins her one more time.."
When? February '13 Where? 1st Stage Theatre, McLean VA Why? Shanley is one of my favorite playwrights, and I had a great experience at 1st Stage for "Altar Boyz." Well? This was a warm, endearing show about love, friendship and family, with mostly excellent performances from the small cast. I enjoy Shanley's ability to explore a character's motivations and what's in his/her heart, and the actors clearly embraced the required vulnerability. In the end, theatre is about the people, and this cast had a great chemistry. The set made clever use of the space as well. |

Shakespeare's R&JWhat? From the show website: "Four young men. One scarf. Shakespeare’s transcendent saga of forbidden love reimagined in a brave and bold in-the-round setting.
A repressive all-male Catholic boarding school bans Romeo and Juliet in favor of Latin conjugations and the Ten Commandments. Four students unearth a secret copy and steal into the night to recite the prohibited tale of adolescent passion. While it begins as a lark, the story gradually draws the boys into a discovery of universal truth that parallels their own coming-of-age. A riveting drama within a drama, Shakespeare’s R&J transcends the boundaries between play and player." When? February '13 Where? Signature Theatre Arlington, VA Why? Wanted to see this and was fortunate enough to have a friend going to a preview so that I could tag along! Well? An incredibly unique, layered approach to this Shakespeare staple. Wow. The four actors completely committed to the concept, and gave the audience a remarkable performance of "Romeo and Juliet" as well as an intimate subtext of the personal relationships among the boys, both romanic and otherwise, and the internal struggles each faces. On a rich but simple set, with lots of gleaming wood, and using only a few chairs, a trunk and a long red swathe of fabric, the actors careened between scenes and characters. I loved it. |

PicnicWhat? From the show website: "William Inge's Pulitzer Prize-winning play Picnic returns to Broadway in a striking new production helmed by acclaimed director Sam Gold (Roundabout’s Look Back in Anger, Seminar). Academy Award® winner Ellen Burstyn stars alongside theatre veterans Reed Birney (The Dream of the Burning Boy) and Elizabeth Marvel (Other Desert Cities), rising stars Maggie Grace (“Lost”) and Sebastian Stan (“Gossip Girl”), Emmy® Award winner Mare Winningham (recently seen in Tribes), Madeleine Martin (August: Osage County) and Ben Rappaport (Hope Springs).
It’s a balmy Labor Day in the American Heartland, and a group of women are preparing for a picnic... but they'll have to lay a lot on the line before they can lay out the checkered cloths. When a handsome young drifter named Hal (Stan) arrives, his combination of uncouth manners and titillating charm sends the women reeling, especially the beautiful Madge (Grace). When Hal is forced out of town, Madge must decide whether their fleeting encounter is worth changing the course of her life. Sensual, passionate and delightfully funny, Picnic is a timeless American classic about the line between restraint and desire.It’s a balmy Labor Day in the American Heartland, and a group of women are preparing for a picnic... but they'll have to lay a lot on the line before they can lay out the checkered cloths. Sensual, passionate and delightfully funny, Picnic is a timeless American classic about the line between restraint and desire." When? February ' 13 Where? American Airlines Theatre Why? I subscribed to Roundabout this season in part because I have never seen a production of this play and thought this would be a great introduction. Well? Mare Winningham and Ellen Burstyn are remarkable actors, and it's a gift to see them on stage together. Maggie Grace and Sebastian Stan, as the combustible lovers at the center of the story, are also very effective in their chemistry. I definitely believed that she would take the chances he incites her to risk. In fact, Stan has the necessary chemistry with each of the women in the cast, and the audience as well. This is a strong cast all around; I particularly enjoyed Madeleine Martin as "Millie," the smart, wisecracking, but often overlooked younger sister, and Elizabeth Marvel as Rosemary, the desperate school teacher craving the marriage that will legitimize her as a successful woman. It is also to the production's credit that, despite a driving snowstorm outside the theatre that night, the audience was transported to a sweltering, steamy, oppressive midwestern summer's day. |

Phantom of the OperaWhat? From the show website: "Far beneath the majesty and splendour of the Paris Opera House, hides the Phantom in a shadowy existence. Shamed by his physical appearance and feared by all, the love he holds for his beautiful protégée Christine Daaé is so strong that even her heart cannot resist.The musical opened at Her Majesty’s Theatre on 9 October 1986 with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman in the leading roles, and there have been dozens of productions worldwide since then. Now in its 25th record-breaking year, The Phantom of the Opera continues to captivate audiences at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London’s West End, after more than 10,000 performances.
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s mesmerising score along with jaw-dropping scenery and breathtaking special effects, magically combine to bring this tragic love story to life each night." When? February '13 Where? The Majestic Theatre Why? It's the 25th anniversary of the show's opening in London and Sierra Boggess, a wonderful Broadway actor who I last saw in "The Little Mermaid" is performing the role of Christine for a limited engagement. I've only ever seen the show on tour (in Los Angeles) and haven't seen it for many years, so this seemed like a great opportunity to reintroduce myself to the show. Well? Sierra Boggess is just a gorgeous performer in every way; such a beautiful and expressive voice. It was certainly a treat to hear the familiar songs performed so flawlessly. As I remembered, the set and effects are crowd-pleasing, and it's hard not to like a show that embraces itself as a larger-than-life extravaganza. Phantom is a favorite show of several people I know~one that they return to over and over for the sheer scale, satisfying drama and beautiful music. Whether or not it's your favorite show, it's definitely a fascinating story and you can't go wrong listening to these talented singers. |

CinderellaWhat? From the show website: "Rodgers + Hammerstein’s CINDERELLA is coming to Broadway for the first time ever! Four-time Tony Award® nominee Douglas Carter Beane’s (Sister Act, Xanadu) delightfully romantic and hilarious take on the ultimate makeover story features all the classic elements you remember—the pumpkin, the glass slipper, the masked ball and more—plus some surprising new twists! Rediscover some of Rodgers + Hammerstein’s most beloved songs, including “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible/It’s Possible” and “Ten Minutes Ago” in this outrageously fun Broadway musical for dreamers of all ages."
When? February '13 Where? The Broadway Theatre Why? I love Rodgers & Hammerstein's and Douglas Carter Bean's work, so this was an easy decision. Well? The songs from this version of "Cinderella" (especially "10 Minutes Ago" and "Impossible/It's Possible") are so memorable that it's always wonderful to hear them performed, particularly in the person of Laura Osnes, a charming performer with an exquisite voice. I loved her in "Anything Goes" and "South Pacific," and this was no exception. She brings a strength to the sweetness required of the role, and has chemistry with every other actor with whom she shares the stage. The set is lovely and entertaining, and the special effects used for the transformations of Cinderella's costumes elicited gasps and applause from the audience. I also enjoyed the interpretation of the stepsisters as more sympathetic to Cinderella; it made great use of the talented actors portraying them (Anne Harada and Marla Mindelle). And of course I would never complain about seeing Harriet Harris (stepmother) be funny on stage, or listening to Victoria Clark (Fairy Godmother) sing. My complaint would be with the casting of the prince (Santino Fontana). While I found him likable and funny where appropriate, I didn't quite believe him as the prince of this story. There are some twists to the narrative, some of which worked and some which didn't (I don't want to give them away at this point). The show is still in previews, and I am considering making a return visit to see how it evolves. |

The Mystery of Edwin Drood (3rd time; first time for friend)What? From the show website: "You choose the murderer in The Mystery of Edwin Drood, the whodunit smash based on the unfinished novel by Charles Dickens and adapted by Tony Award®–winning writer/composer Rupert Holmes (Curtains). Scott Ellis (She Loves Me) directs this rollicking musical in its first-ever return to Broadway since winning the Tony “Triple Crown” (Best Musical, Best Book, and Best Score)!
Who killed Edwin Drood? It’s a question that has stumped audiences for years—now it’s your turn to answer one of Broadway’s most baffling mysteries.Take a trip back in time to a Victorian music hall where a rowdy ensemble of actors mounts a staging of Charles Dickens’ unfinished novel. Everyone on stage is a suspect in the murder of young Edwin Drood—and it’s up to you to choose the killer! Is it John Jasper, Edwin’s protective but slightly maniacal uncle? Rosa Bud, his reluctant betrothed? The debauched Princess Puffer? Each performance ends differently, depending on what the audience decides!" When? February '13 Where? Studio 54 Why? My friend wanted to see the show, and it's the perfect show to see multiple times; the anticipation of how the story will end makes it fun each time! Well? This was the final show for Betsy Wolfe (Rosa Budd) and Andy Karl (Neville Landless), and the entire cast was at peak energy and in high spirits! That's saying a great deal, because this cast is the show. Sure, the set is charming, the songs fun, the jokes plentiful...but without the infectious cheer tumbling from these actors, it just wouldn't be the wildly entertaining show it is. Fittingly, Betsy and Andy each were chosen as a player in the finale (Neville as Datchery, the detective; and Rosa as the murderer), and when Will Chase as John Jasper was chosen as one of the lovers for the very first time (along with Jessie Mueller as Helena Landless), the cast and audience were all treated to the ensuing hilarity. All the actors at the stage door talked about how much fun it was to have this particular ending, and how fitting to end Betsy and Andy's runs on such a high! |

Mary PoppinsWhat? From the Playbill.com synopsis: "Based on the books by P.L. Travers and the classic Walt Disney film, this is the story of the Banks family and how their lives change after the arrival of nanny Mary Poppins at their home at 17 Cherry Tree Lane in London."
When? February '13 Where? New Amsterdam Theatre Why? I had the opportunity to see the show one more time before it closes on Broadway on Mar 3 '13, and it remains one of my favorite musical productions ever, both sentimentally and from sheer fun! Well? So grateful to my pal for wanting to see the show again!! Steffanie Leigh gave a marvelous performance as Mary, and there are still hardly any song/dance numbers on Broadway that I enjoy as much as "Step in Time"!! This is a classic musical with a beloved story and if you haven't seen it, make sure to catch it on tour! |
|
The Glass MenagerieWhat? From the show website: "While Amanda Wingfield desperately struggles to provide her fragile daughter with at least one “gentleman caller,” her son, Tom, dreams of escaping from his job at a warehouse and his oppressive life at home. An exquisite family drama filtered through Tom’s memory, The Glass Menagerie is staged by John Tiffany, the acclaimed director of the international sensation, Black Watch, and the Broadway musical, Once."
When? February '13 Where? The American Repertory Theatre, Boston, MA Why? A classic play I've never seen; a director of whom I'm a big fan, John Tiffany; a cast that's amazing; all at a theater I've come to really love. Well? Again, John Tiffany has created a work of art on stage. He provides a palette of unique colors with which this phenomenal cast paints us a story with their faces, their movements, the timbre of their voices. There is the poignant symbolism of a stage surrounded by water, a single glass unicorn representing the "menagerie," and a towering fire escape going nowhere. But mostly there are four heartfelt, raw, vulnerable performances that I feel certain I will never forget, on a set that created a world I found painfully beautiful. This is a fresh, inventive, creative production of a classic story, and I'm thrilled it was the first time I'd seen this play on stage. |

Annie (2nd time; first time for friend)What? From the show website: "LEAPIN' LIZARDS! It's an all-new production of one of the most acclaimed musicals of the past 35 years! With equal measures of pluck and positivity, little orphan ANNIE charms everyone's hearts, despite a next-to-nothing start in 1930s New York City. And now, alongside her signature pal dog, Sandy, she's set her sights on making us grin from ear to ear as she inspires a whole new millennium.
Winner of 7 Tony Awards® including Best Musical, ANNIE - with Music by Charles Strouse, Lyrics by Martin Charnin, and Book by Thomas Meehan - makes its triumphant return to Broadway in a brand new production from Tony, Drama Desk and Pulitzer Prize-winning Director James Lapine and an A-list creative team." When? February '13 Where? The Palace Theatre Why? I did want to see the show again; and I'm hoping to see Lilla Crawford in the title role this time! Well? I was so pleased to see Lilla Crawford as "Annie," but I do have to now give extra credit to her understudy, Taylor Richardson, who I saw previously and loved. Each of these young ladies is remarkable; they have such presence and charisma on stage that it was a joy to watch. I think I enjoyed this performance more overall than the first time; mainly because the cast seems to have gelled well over the past few months. Katie Finneran is always a treat, and I love to hear Anthony Warlow sing; he's really a wonderful Warbucks! This was the first time my friend had seen "Annie" on stage and pronounced it a resounding success! |
|
PassionWhat? From the show website: "Discover the power of love in Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s 1994 Tony Award-winning musical. CSC is proud to present the first fully-mounted New York revival of this rarely-performed masterpiece, helmed by the innovative John Doyle who has been celebrated for his revelatory reinterpretations of Sondheim’s SWEENEY TODD and COMPANY. Experience this remarkable work that has grown in both critical and popular esteem to become what many consider to be Sondheim’s deepest and most powerful evening of musical theatre.."
When? February '13 Where? The Classic Stage Company Why? I love the idea of seeing a show that isn't often an option. I enjoyed the Classic Stage Company's "Midsummer Night's Dream," and sought out the opportunity to attend another show here. Well? A rich, elegant and beautifully performed piece of theatre. Judy Kuhn and Ryan Silverman have gorgeous voices and a definite "can't take your eyes off them" quality when they're on stage. I loved the costumes, how the actors moved around the stage and each other, and the way the harmonies soared when all the voices joined together. The story has so much anguish, and the audience is reminded on many levels that the word "passion" can describe many different emotions, not merely romance or sexual desire. Sondheim's music is complex, compelling and palpably reflects the increasing agitation of the characters as the story progresses towards a devastating end. |

CliveWhat? From the show website: "Inspired by Bertolt Brecht's inflammatory play Baal, Clive tracks a dissipated songwriter in 1990s New York City from the hedonistic heights of seduction and consumption into an ecstasy of self-destruction. This production reunites Jonathan Marc Sherman and Ethan Hawke, who teamed previously at The New Group on Things We Want (written by Sherman, directed by Hawke). At once a celebration and a nightmare vision of life lived for pleasure, Clive boasts an eclectic selection of classic American songs performed live. "
When? February '13 Where? Acorn Theater, Theatre Row Why? I am a fan of several of the actors in this cast, and the story sounded interesting. This will be my first time at Acorn Theater. Well? Hmmm. Not sure what to say about this one. I will say, unequivocally, that the performances by all the members of this cast were full out, brave and masterful in the intensity with which they committed to the work. Ethan Hawke, Vincent D'Onofrio and Zoe Kazan were truly thrilling to see on stage. The set was also rather amazing, with doors that became musical instruments and various spaces that became myriad places and eras with a mere blink and a change of costumes. I also liked the abstract, expressionist style of the piece. However, I found the action that did play out for the audience to be excessively and unrelentingly dark and disturbing (and I have a pretty high tolerance for dark and disturbing on stage!), and I'm not sure it was unexpected or revelatory. Ethan Hawke's irredeemably damaged (and damaging) rock star character descends into addiction with increasingly horrific consequences, and I don't think the story broke new ground, in the way that the rest of the production and performances arguably did. |

BellevilleWhat? From the show website: "Heralded by the New York Times as "thrillingly good," Belleville, the newest drama from acclaimed playwright Amy Herzog (4000 Miles, After the Revolution) and director Anne Kauffman (Detroit, This Wide Night), is a chilling, Hitchcockian, look at the limits of trust, truth, deception and dependency in a world where both love and loss can be pathological and cathartic. Of its 2011 premiere at Yale Repertory Theatre, Charles Isherwood of The New York Times wrote, Belleville "confirms [Herzog's] reputation as one of the brightest new talents in the theater."
Abby and Zack - young, American and married - have abandoned the stability of a comfortable post-graduate life in the states for Belleville, a bustling, bohemian, multicultural neighborhood in Paris. In an attempt to build a life together away from family and friends, their passive-aggressive and aggressively passionate relationship is put to test after an awkward afternoon discovery, a landlord's ultimatum and a cracked toenail." When? February '13 Where? New York Theatre Workshop Why? After seeing, and loving, two plays by Amy Herzog ("4000 Miles," "The Great God Pan"), I am more than eager to see her newest work. And NYTW is always a good bet! Well? The thing that Amy Herzog does so well is to create characters that I want to know more about, and stories I want to see play out on stage. This work is no exception. The toxic relationship between Abby and Zack, a married couple living a tenuous existence in Paris, is a roller coaster of emotions and truths and lies; a chaos created by the couple over the years, and finally slamming into a metaphorical brick wall in the small flat they share. Abby and Zack's landlords are Amina and Alioune, a French-African couple, who provide the counterpoint with their more stable (but not without its issues) relationship. Zack has the more straightforward "secrets," and seems the "bad guy" for much of the play, but there are hints of Abby's role in the coming tragedy, and while more careful editing would have provided a necessary decrease in length (an hour and forty minutes without an intermission is probably too long) and less static time on the stage, I was riveted by the unraveling of these two seemingly smart, likeable people. |

Newsical The MusicalWhat? From the show website: "NEWSical The Musical is the forever changing, completely un-sanitized musical mockery of all the news that's fit to spoof. From the looming fiscal cliff crisis to the pope opening a Twitter account to Honey Boo Boo, NEWSicalThe Musical sets all of today's biggest pop culture headlines to song. Kressley is the latest star to grace the NEWSical The Musical stage. Previously, celebrity gossip guru Perez Hilton joined the show for a limited run, followed by Broadway's original Annie, Andrea McArdle and most recently, Saturday Night Live's Cheri Oteri. Carson Kressley will appear in NEWSical The Musical from February 6th - March 3rd."
When? February '13 Where? Kirk Theatre on Theatre Row Why? Carson Kressley?? Of course I want to see this! I've loved him since "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy"! Well? What a blast! This irreverent take on current events and pop culture news ("Honey Boo Boo" anyone? :)) is performed by a really talented cast of four principals and one celebrity "host," in this case Carson Kressley, who is just so endearing and has that enviable quality of being supremely comfortable in his own skin (or at least acting like he is :)!). The revue covered everything from environmental news ("Mother Nature" being pissed off); to the budget crisis ("Suze Orman" giving the President and SOTH a lecture); to the Pope's resignation (his Twitter account becoming more popular than Justin Bieber's) and so on. Carson did some dead on impressions of Ellen Degeneres and Rachel Maddow, and was just generally funny throughout. After three very serious plays in a row this weekend, this was just what I needed! :) |
|
HughieWhat? From the show website: "One of O’Neill’s later works, Hughie is a commanding study of Erie Smith, a man whose illusions of a grand lifestyle are wavering after the death of the stranger who quietly validated his larger-than-life confidence. Erie is searching for a new person to affirm his transparent fantasies or else be forced to face his own crushing self-pity. Hughie stands to transfix its audience with the raw force wrought by one of O’Neill’s most stirring characters.."
When? February '13 Where? Lansburgh Theatre of The Shakespeare Theatre Company, Washington DC Why? I am an avid fan of Richard Schiff. He was the one of the highlights of "Glengarry Glen Ross," eclipsing Al Pacino. Seriously. Well? In 55 minutes, such a huge story was told in this incredibly human, vulnerable portrayal of Erie Smith, a chronic gambler living in a decrepit hotel in NYC during the depression, who depends on the night desk clerk to keep loneliness at bay. As it turns out, the previous desk clerk, Hughie, has recently passed away and Erie is reeling from the loss of the closest thing to a friend he's had in recent memory. So we watch his increasingly desperate attempts to engage the new man, who, we learn during voice over narration, is just as desperately trying to keep anything like human contact far away. The clock on the wall above the desk keeps real time, and as the minutes tick by, it gets more difficult for Erie to give up, and for the desk clerk to stay disconnected. Richard Schiff is a masterful storyteller, and from his darkly funny, wounded Erie, we learn about Hughie, and begin to understand what he represented that was so critical to Erie's survival. I was captivated watching Schiff's emotions shifting with just a jerk of his head or a swing of his arm. The set was expansive, which was effective in giving Schiff space to move around, and emphasizing the rigid position (physically and emotionally) of the desk clerk, who stays impassively behind the desk for almost the entire hour. |

9 CirclesWhat? From the show website: "In spring 2006, Private Reeves receives an honorable discharge from the army, returns home to Texas, and wakes up in a prison cell. On trial for brutal war crimes committed in Iraq, Reeves will not (or cannot) explain his motives. And everyone, from his lawyer to his pastor to the public, latches on to a different story. Mirroring Dante’s Inferno, this fierce psychological drama ventures into the darkest corners of both the war and the mind -- in hopes of light on the other side."
When? February '13 Where? Forum Theatre, Silver Spring, MD Why? I was offered a ticket by a friend, and I'm excited to attend my first production at this theatre! Well? Well, this was a riveting 105 minutes! Julian Elijah Martinez gave a truly amazing performance as the young soldier for whom the military was offered as hope for a better life, and instead provided the circumstances of his personal destruction. I like plays that have nuance; that don't spell everything you're intended to think and feel out for you. This was one of those. It's a difficult story (war crimes are never light fare), but ultimately one of the more unique ways of telling the story of how a damaged child can become a damaging, self-sabotaging adult; and raising the question of our responsibility as a society to face mental illness, and the consequences if we refuse to get involved. There are four actors in this production, three of whom play a series of roles as the action progresses. It is an extremely strong cast all around, and the staging was provocative. One of the great satisfactions of seeing smaller productions is marveling at the inventiveness of the creative team in using minimal props, sets and space to tell such big stories! |
|
The TempestWhat? From the show website: "On the water-filled stage, Synetic’s visual poetry will bring Prospero’s magical island to life. A romantic drama of epic proportions emerges from the depths as spirits, monsters, witches, drunken fools and lithe lovers contort and cavort with all the passion and bravado you can imagine.
With The Tempest, Synetic presents the ninth installment in its renowned “Silent Shakespeare” series. Expect BIG things with this production: stunning set design complete with a water extravaganza, larger-than-life visual, acrobatics and the remarkably visceral experience Synetic is known for." When? February '13 Where? Synetic Theater, Crystal City, Arlington, VA Why? Just as I enjoy discovering new works of theatre, I also love discovering new theatres and theatre companies. I was not familiar with this theater and am very intrigued by the idea of a silent, movement-centric production of a Shakespeare work. I love dance and the choreography of theatre, whether it's a play or a musical, so I'm excited to see this production. And there's a "splash zone" :)! Well? The perfect follow up to the previous evening's rather dark entertainment! This playful, wildly entertaining, unspoken (but arguably not really "silent") combination of theatre and dance and acrobatics and lots and lots of water tells the classic Shakespeare island tale of adventure, and the coexistence of the humans and the magical creatures that bedevil and yet save them. An incredibly talented group of performers tumble and splash and dance and mime for us, on a water-filled stage with pianos that spout musical waterfalls and a water slide for a mountain. The first three rows, especially in the center, are probably to be avoided if you have an aversion to being frequently and fairly heavily splashed during the show. Ponchos are provided, but may not do the trick for the first row in particular! I am so happy to have been introduced to this theatre company, which is celebrating its tenth year. I will definitely be back, especially as they're doing one of my favorites, "A Midsummer Night's Dream," later this spring! |
|
MetamorphosesWhat? From the show website: "Back in D.C. for the first time since her smash hit productions of The Arabian Nights and Candide, and ten years after this exquisite production stormed Broadway and earned her the Tony Award for Best Director, MacArthur “Genius” Mary Zimmerman returns with Metamorphoses. Zimmerman’s magical interpretation of Ovid’s Metamorphoses proves myths about romance, family, loss and redemption never go out of style. Through lyrical storytelling and stunning imagery, Zimmerman constructs a wondrous world where gods and mortals interact in a giant pool on our famous in-the-round stage. These timeless stories – “powerful, moving, and funny” (Talkin’ Broadway) – ripple through the depths of imagination, reminding us of the transformative power of theater."
When? February '13 Where? Arena Stage, Washington, DC Why? Another uniquely staged piece of theatre that I just can't resist! Well? Another lovely show that entertained from the moment the house lights went down and the first strains of music rose. It is playful but powerful storytelling, with the pool of water representing imagination, human nature, the capricious whims of mother nature and the gods of mythology. One of my favorite parts of the show was the rather unexpected humor and irreverence woven with classic poetic cadence. The versatile cast moves easily among roles, and the 90 minutes flows seamlessly between the tales. The audience was audibly appreciative and entertained throughout, and, at one point, as I was riveted by an ancient story, I realized I felt as if I were experiencing the very roots of theatre and story. This gathering together of strangers to be told a story with little more than a pool of water and some props, sharing a unique experience that we will then carry out of the theatre with us and pass on to those others we meet along the way. Note: There is full male nudity in one scene, but it is not sensational and the lights are dim. |
