...most useful show anywhere is one that graces New York's WABC-TV at 6:30 a.m. Saturday and Washington's WETA at 12:30 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday. It is Project Know's "Let's Lipread," and not only is it guaranteed not to awaken the rest of the family or the neighbors, but it is fine preparation for those moments when the Early Bird satellite broadcasts' audio breaks down or for determining what politicians caught by zoom lenses on convention floors are saying to one another.

Especially in the third act, set on a mountain peak, Ibsen resorts to artificial contrivances that are not characteristic...
Perhaps it is impossible to make appealing theatre out of When We Dead Awaken. Certainly it is hard to distinguish Ibsen's shortcomings from those of director and cast. The Theatre Company's major mistake, I think, was to produce When We Dead Awaken in the first place. In their quest for unusual modern plays, they seem this time to have bitten off more than they--or possibly any company--can chew...
