Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike
Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike at the Panasonic Theatre, was somewhat of a disappointment for me, in spite of a bravura cast, the play was just not that funny. It ran for 201 performances on Broadway with Sigourney Weaver, Billy Magnussen, and David Hyde Pierce, and won both the Tony Award and Drama Desk Award. The reviewers seemed to love the show and found it hysterical, and our cast with Jennifer Dale, Fiona Reid and Steven Sutcliffe are all great actors, so I can only blame the director for misdirecting the humour in the material.
