...acting--with a few negligible exceptions--is superb. The heart of this play--Prince Hal (Bill Camp) and Sir John Falstaff (Jeremy Geidt)--beats with perfect rhythm. Mistress Quickly (Remio Airaldi), Doll Tearsheet (Maggie Rush), the Archbishop of York (Herb Downer), and Justice Shallow (William Young) are particularly memorable. Under the direction of Ron Daniels, these characters are shaped pertinently from the text. Not simply characters from Shakespeare, they are characters we interact with daily They are our friends and families; they are ourselves...

In vivid detail (Mussolini looks "like a Caruso in uniform"), the book unfolds with the archetypal figures and engorged emotions of silent films ("You must be my mistress," Goebbels implores; "I need you -- without you my life is a torment!"). A fascinating political and personal history, the book could make an enthralling movie...
...howled the blues with Chapman and hollered in falsetto with the Bee Gees. We found out that Kathy Ireland and Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, went to Sean's high school, and we found out that Amanda thinks Cary Elwes is the hottest guy ever. Tarek and I rhapsodized about the pre-Guns `n' Roses Stephanie Seymour. We discussed what we find attractive in other people--besides nice eyes...
