...even if everyone on stage is working very hard and even if the set is gorgeous, Winterset somehow does not connect. Anderson was undoubtedly a major force, but his plays are better read than seen.

His only attempt to say anything unfamiliar about combat comes in a rumination assigned to Landers. Brooding over how he and his fellow soldiers, so close in battle, have split apart in Luxor, Landers reflects: "It was funny but in each case it was a woman who had pulled them away. Females. ...
