Still: Tboy couldn't help but giggle at this graf:
Ford's, too, deserves applause for taking a chance on this material. Some other major companies in town seem content these days to feast on well-cooked chestnuts.
Goodness. Wonder which "major company" Peter could have in mind?
Peter Marks pissed me off with his "Incubator for Theater Innovators" story on March 18th. In a story that otherwise was okay, he had to throw off this out-of-nowhere dis:
"Why does the idea of vibrant cadres of regional theater writers seem like a pipe dream in this country?"
Uh, hello. DC has a vibrant cadre of regional theater writers, regularly getting full productions from the region's theaters.
This strikes me as pointless, aimless cattiness on his part, and I wish he would strive to write tighter and make more sense. When he's good, he's really good, but I'm waiting for the "good" to come back again.
Thanks for the chance to sound off!
