...Rolfe Field unfolds, when Lentz, blessed with the rarest degree of inborn ability, who at one point in his career was mentioned in the same breath as some of Major League Baseball’s brightest young stars, is made an object of ridicule by a gang of barely sober, snot-nosed schoolboys who don’t have half his brain or his maturity. It’s more than a little awkward to see the story of a figure as complicated and fascinating as Lentz reduced to a few punch lines about old skeletons in his closet...

It’s a good sign that the Peanuts gang could understand the plight of a Harvard student. While Charlie might be left saying “good grief” at the end of the day, this production of You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown put a smile on the face of theater goers...
