...richness of their subjects. Arthur Rubinstein is a full bounty, as much a great pianist as a cosmic romantic force. Unhappily, French Co-Director François Reichenbach is a sloppy, indiscriminate documentarian.

And having wrought its image clearly in our eye, the play can then trust to our restless minds to draw the inescapable analogies to our own experience. The Caravan Theater has tapped this power with extraordinary effectiveness in the past, and they will no doubt do so in the future.
