Blithe Spirit | "clever, well-informed people"
https://cwip.wordpress.com/2013/10/07/blithe-spirit
Clever, well-informed people. Books, culture, art, politics…. October 7, 2013. Much fun. Clever, lovely, seemingly light-as-air (like Elvira), but with a heart…. I do think in the same way I loved the Romantics and now find them stilted, I’ve gotten over the drawing room comedy. Perfectly entertaining as it is, and this one was perfectly presented, it’s stuffed full, where I yearn for spareness. I can love the wit of Wilde and Coward, but I may just be done going to see them. 183;Tags: Blithe Spirit.

Goodbye… | "clever, well-informed people"
https://cwip.wordpress.com/2014/01/22/goodbye
Clever, well-informed people. Books, culture, art, politics…. January 22, 2014. I think this is goodbye, at least for now. For the last couple years I haven’t been able to keep up here as much as I’d like, and it’s not fair to leave it around without offering regular content. I’ve loved talking books and culture with you, and the conversations will go on, in other ways and other places. 2 Responses to “Goodbye…”. October 29, 2015 at 1:30 pm. October 29, 2015 at 1:38 pm.

Waiting for Godot | "clever, well-informed people"
https://cwip.wordpress.com/2013/09/07/waiting-for-godot
Clever, well-informed people. Books, culture, art, politics…. September 7, 2013. This may have been the most perfect piece of theatre I’ve ever seen. The acting was stunning. Tom Rooney and Stephen Ouimette were fabulously balanced; Brian Dennehy was, well, Brian Dennehy; Randy Hughson was heartbreaking and terrifying as Lucky (what a name! And even the boy(s? Stood their test well. In the program the director talks about silence and space, and these things are all, in. And what to say about Beckett?

Clever, well-informed people. Books, culture, art, politics…. 8220;From you I get the story”. July 30, 2013. It was understudy day at. From Captain Walker on down), and I’m amazed at how many of the players were making their Stratford debuts (all the way up to Robert Markus, Tommy himself), but Pete and Des’ show is resilient and vivid. With those stunning videos! I think the best gig I’ve ever seen on a Stratford stage is riding a spinning, bumping, sparking, flaming pinball machine. 8220;ahems and ahah...
