...Fleming's casual-dining chain of bistros soon became a comfortable, go-to place for happy hours, family outings and birthday dinners. You'll find many of them in unexpected places, like Alpharetta, Ga., and Rogers, Ark. Most of the time, there's nary an Asian face in the room, but the point was never to target Chinese customers by serving authentic cuisine. That's why every outlet features a prominent bar and a Top 40 sound track with Sheryl Crow and U2. The cuisine, a hybridized version of Chinese food that would be unrecognizable in most parts of China...
...operating room that the new way of doing things is most graphically illustrated. Surgery in the U.S. is billed the same ŕ la carte way primary care is: separate charges for the hospital, the anesthesiologist, the lead surgeon, the post-op checkups, and on and on. Care itself can be similarly fragmented, with patients finding themselves in the hands of whoever happens to be on duty at any point in the day and a doctor on the night shift knowing little about a patient whose surgeon worked the day shift.

In reality, however, the production only half succeeds in its goal; though it successfully reinvents the character of Richard, it leaves the rest of the cast lagging behind. The directorial decision to focus...
...features little physical action besides two very brief sword fights and the comically repetitive throwing down of gauntlets to challenge enemies. Generally the actors stand in one place and deliver their lines, moving only occasionally to engage the other characters. The stage is similarly uneventful. The intimate Horner Room is barely altered; a throne and the room’s balcony are the totality of the set. The production therefore relies totally on its actresses’ ability to shed new light on their characters...
