IT'S ONLY A PLAY
Terrence McNally’s irreverent backstage farce “about the comedy of Broadway” is alternately raucous, ridiculous, and tender.
With his career on the line, Peter Austin anxiously waits for the opening night reviews of his Broadway play.
Alongside him are his novice producer, his highly erratic diva, his secretly disloyal best friend, his egomaniacal “genius” director, an infamously savage critic, and a fresh-off-the-bus actor.
Mr. McNally, a four-time Tony® winner, recently received a Special Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in the Theatre.
“It’s Only A Play” is easily the best theatrical bargain in town. It might also end up the funniest, best acted comedy of the season.
This critic for one thinks that the Morgan-Wixson has outdone itself in this superb production.
The laughs abound non-stop!
