A little more than midway through our announced run of I’ll Say She Is, our revival of the lost 1924 Marx Brothers Broadway musical, notices have begun to pile up and it’s a most exciting general vote of approval!
Fresh off the presses is Neil Genzlinger’s rave in the New York Times just out today! Read it here.
Then there is the Adam Gopnick essay in The New Yorker which hit a few weeks back. I’d long known Gopnick to be an aficionado of classic comedy — we spent a good deal of time together when he wrote this piece about new burlesque in which I was featured back in 2002. The I’ll Say She Is piece is here.
Then there were the two major preview features, one in the Wall Street Journal and one in Jewish Week.
And there’s a bunch more! See the full round-up here.
Also, New Yorkers, be sure to watch On Stage on NY-1 this Wednesday. A little birdie told me David Cote’s review will air then (and I believe online afterwards as they normally do). Can’t wait!
Tickets are nearly sold out for the remainder of the run, but some remain: to get them go here.
