Whether on Broadway or
on local stages,
I approach the review as a consumer advocate: Is
the show worth the price of admission?
I also firmly believe in the critic’s role as
a nurterer
of new works.

“I often find that reviewers either re-hash the plot, or comment on the acting but not both. Your review combined all that beautifully (without giving away the plot) and set parallels
with other plays to  help readers find a reference point.”
