Restricted View: Safe at home with our beautiful prize
http://restrictedview.blogspot.com/2011/08/safe-at-home-with-our-beautiful-prize.html
Monday, August 1, 2011. Safe at home with our beautiful prize. Since Celia's baby was born, she had a new sense of her mental solidity and wisdom. It seemed clear that where there was a baby, things were right enough, and that error, in general, was a mere lack of that central poising force.". George Eliot, Middlemarch. So, the happy ending: We have a son! His name is Martin George. He was not quite as enormous as predicted. August 2, 2011 at 7:19 PM. August 3, 2011 at 2:26 PM. August 4, 2011 at 12:34 PM.

Restricted View: The king's good servant
http://restrictedview.blogspot.com/2008/10/kings-good-servant.html
Saturday, October 25, 2008. The king's good servant. My review of the Roundabout Theatre Company's Broadway revival. Of Robert Bolt's A Man for All Seasons. Is in this week's Commonweal. Once again, you've got to subscribe to read it online. I love this play, so I was disappointed to see it so poorly treated. I have also been disappointed by the lazy criticism I've read since I turned in my review. Brantley's review in the NYT. Thank God, as I often do, for Michael Feingold. I've also been surprised by a...

Restricted View: Time to start getting the nets out
http://restrictedview.blogspot.com/2010/04/time-to-start-getting-nets-out.html
Friday, April 23, 2010. Time to start getting the nets out. I always assumed that Anyone Can Whistle. Made some kind of sense. I knew it was whimsical and wacky and all that, but I figured, if I saw the whole thing intact, it would have some. Discernible throughline. Not so much, as it turns out! This is too bad for me, because I've been staging imaginary productions of Anyone Can Whistle. In my head for years, based on the 1994 Carnegie Hall concert version. Of Arthur Laurents getting off the hook?

Restricted View: Brighton Gone Dark
http://restrictedview.blogspot.com/2009/11/brighton-gone-dark.html
Friday, November 6, 2009. I have mixed feelings about the suprise commercial flop. Of "The Neil Simon Plays" - despite the critical success of Brighton Beach Memoirs. On the one hand, it means the words "Neil Simon" - even coupled with the word "revival" - are not enough to sell tickets these days. I think that's a good thing, generally, for Broadway. On the other hand: this was an exceptionally good revival, and it's not so great for Broadway when excellent work goes unrewarded. Really felt like a play.

Restricted View: Oh, is that on tonight?
http://restrictedview.blogspot.com/2011/06/oh-is-that-on-tonight.html
Sunday, June 12, 2011. Oh, is that on tonight? For example, I saw Arcadia. Which I thought was quite good. It has a big cast with several very strong performances - in general I thought the British cast members were stronger than the Americans, and if I were to recommend individual actors for Tony nominations, Billy Crudup would probably be the last name on my list. And Billy Crudup was the only member of that cast to be nominated. Hooray? I also saw That Championship Season. Last year I complained.

Restricted View: Do what I'm tellin' ya!
http://restrictedview.blogspot.com/2007/02/do-what-im-tellin-ya.html
Wednesday, February 28, 2007. Do what I'm tellin' ya! I know you know Judy Garland. And you probably know Jennifer. Holliday, but if you are under the age of 40,there's a good chance you're having trouble conjuring up a mental image of Judy Holliday. If that's the case, you need to stop everything and go add Born Yesterday. To your Netflix queue. And bump it to the top. Go ahead, I'll wait. I don't think Born Yesterday. It seems appropriate that Joe Gillis should be a nonentity, at least in his relations...

Restricted View: So clever, but ever so sad
http://restrictedview.blogspot.com/2007/02/so-clever-but-ever-so-sad.html
Tuesday, February 13, 2007. So clever, but ever so sad. May I offer my sincere condolences if you missed your chance to see the splendid Encores! I wasn't sure whether Follies. Would work in a semi-staged concert context, or, for that matter, whether it works at all, having never seen it onstage in any form (if you don't count the YouTube clips of that high school production, and you shouldn't), and having read many conflicting opinions about why it is or is not unproduceable. But the Encores! When "Beau...

The VanderMitchells: Is that wrong?
http://vandermitchells.blogspot.com/2011/09/is-that-wrong.html
Tuesday, September 27, 2011. We both laughed right through the tantrum pictured below because of the pace of mood changes. Is that wrong? A game of 'I Spy with My Little Eye' cleared seemed to clear it up. Thanks for the intro to that game so many years ago, Mom :). I loved the pictures. the first one is my ggson Lincoln. My gosh he will be a big guy like his dad with those long legs. Those pictures remind me of sunshine and storm clouds Love Grandma. September 28, 2011 at 2:59 PM. Fish NC with River Girl.
