Pros: A great look at life and death Cons: Heavy material. Not for the weak.
When I look back at high school, I remember one teacher, Ms. VW (as we called her). She was my AP English teacher and she was probably the most demanding teacher I’ve ever had (college included). What I remember is the enthusiasm she had for...
Pros: A touching story and an incredible performance by Judith Light Cons: Perhaps ran a bit long at the end
When I first saw the poster for Wit, a portrait of Judith Light in half shadow, completely bald and donning nothing but a baseball cap and a serene heavenward gaze, I knew that I had to put some Kleenex in my purse before heading out for the...
Pros: Tremendous tour de force; wonderful acting Cons: Very heavy subject matter; bring lots of tissues; some nudity
You want me to see a play about a woman dying of cancer? Yes, that is exactly what YentaKvetch is recommending. If "Wit" is coming to a theater near you, rush out and buy a ticket.
YentaKvetch saw this play on March 5, 2000, at the...
Pros: Profound, thought provoking, riveting, wrenching, will stay inside your mind a long while after. Cons: Caution to those feeling sad or depressed should think twice about watching this movie.
From the TV previews I watched during the past month I looked forward to viewing this movie, especially being that it stars one of my favorite actors, Emma Thompson (Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility.)
Pros: well acted, interesting set, creative lighting, powerful Cons: none, unless you despise depressing shows
I saw W;t with one of my theatre classes, and had honestly never heard of it before. When I heard that the star was Judith Light, I was surprised, because I always think of her in Who's the Boss, and made-for-tv-movies.
The play itself is a drama...
Pros: Fantastic writing Cons: Some mediocre performances
Wit is one of the most fantastic pieces of writing I have had the opportunity to see.
I saw Wit in the fall, while Judith Light was still playing the lead. I went into the show with the same skepticism that I bring to anything that the...
Pros: excellent writing, blend of humor and profound sadness Cons: convincing depiction of cancer won't be to all tastes
In a better world, W;t would be playing to sellout crowds on Broadway.
As it is, I got a discount ticket at the Union Square Theatre one day in advance, a good seat at that (there are advantages to going to the theatre alone: the box office may have...
Pros: The most amazing theatrical experience you'll ever have Cons: None
This is one of the most emotionally wrenching theatre experiences I've ever had. This play, honestly, changed my view of theatre for the rest of my life. I know it's closing soon (has already closed?), but PLEASE don't cheat yourself out of seeing W;t...
Pros: Top rate production: excellent direction, acting, editing, and screenplay. Cons: Morbid, with only a vague and incomplete metaphysical view offered of the subject.
Superbly directed by Mike Nicholas and superbly acted by Emma Thompson, this is the story of a English literature professor who has a life threatening cancer. She is hospitalized, alone to herself most of the time, during which she reflects on her life,...
