Herts & Tallant, architects. Built by Daniel Frohman to improve upon his own Lyceum on 14th Street. Playwrights George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart led a team of theatre folk who bought the theatre in 1939. Lee Shubert acquired it in 1949 and leased it to the APA-Phoenix Repertory Company from 1965 to 1969. It is New York's oldest surviving theatre in continuous legitimate use. Also, the first Broadway theatre to be assigned landmark status (interior and exterior) in 1974.

Commentaire: The Olivier Award-winning comedy The Play That Goes Wrong is a raucous affair on stage and a real-life, rags-to-riches tale offstage. Created by a group of LAMDA graduates who formed a troupe by the name of Mischief Theatre, The Play That Goes Wrong began its life on the London fringe with only four paying patrons, and then did absolutely everything right! The comedy evolved itself into a West End production that would ultimately win an Olivier Award in 2015. A Broadway transfer was granted to the original London stars, which officially opened at the Lyceum Theatre on April 2, 2017, following previews from March 9. (plus)
Presse: "There's a wild, redeeming poetry in such anarchy. My audience, for the record, roared as loudly as the crowds at any wrestling match." Ben Brantley for New York Times
"A comedy that comes up short with laughs and overstays its welcome - now that's murder." Joe Dziemianowicz for New York Daily News
"The show is all payoffs and no setups; it's like a stand-up routine consisting only of punch lines." David Cote for Time Out New York
"It's so ridiculous it makes you feel almost ashamed to love it." Jesse Green, Vulture
"The actors are very good at being bad and are so daring with the outrageous physical comedy that we often fear for their safety. There's no paucity of wit to the proceedings, and director Mark Bell stages the action with clockwork precision." Frank Scheck for Hollywood Reporter
"It's clear from the beginning - even before the beginning with its pre-show shtick - that wrong will be just right. But it takes a while before the laughs come at full speed." Frank Rizzo for Variety

Commentaire: Created after seeing two men purchasing the same copy of an Alan Alda book, Kroll and Mulaney have been honing the duo for the last decade, with appearances on Kroll Show, Comedy Central and at live outings across the country. Part comedy, part loving satire, the two 'legendary' 70 -something divorcees are sure to delight once more on the Great White Way, bringing their...interesting opinions and pranks from their show 'Too Much Tuna'.

Commentaire:
Presse: Les critiques sont très bonnes:
"Takes you into extreme emotional territory that you seldom dare visit in daily life. At the end of its uninterrupted two hours, you are wrung out, scooped out and so exhausted that you're wide awake.." Ben Brantley for New York Times
"Van Hove sees to it that everyone's dripping in guilt." Joe Dziemianowicz for New York Daily News
"a stunning, imaginative theatrical experience, an impassioned interpretation that really brings the heat to Miller's gripping drama." Jennifer Farrar for Associated Press
"Both visually gorgeous and an emotional wipeout." Marilyn Stasio for Variety

Commentaire:
Presse: "The wit and energy of its execution and the warmth of its performers keep the show from being a mere compendium of in-jokes and metatheatrical gags. Mr. Bowen’s lyrics are often clever, his tunes ear-friendly but melodically substantial enough not to sound too wan in a keyboard-only arrangement" (Charles Isherwood-New York Times)
"Bowen's melodies and harmonies are gems, and his bright lyrics offer insight into everything from self-doubt ("Die, Vampire, Die!") and friendship ("What Kind of Girl Is She?") to integrity ("Nine People's Favorite Thing")." & "It has far more savvy and soul than a few flashier shows combined." (Joe Dziemianowicz-New York Daily News)
"This is minimalism shoved down to the vanishing point." & "But when the self-conscious and terminally cute and the pixie-like fey are all mixed up with self-congratulatory smugness, it results in a piece of - oh, let's call it garbage. The music and lyrics are not up to much (in fact, they're up to very little), and the book - apart from the original concept of being on the musical's own assembly line - is slight." (Clive Barnes-New York Post)
"A lovely and surprisingly resonant creation by composer Jeff Bowen and writer Hunter Bell." & "Director Michael Berresse magically makes the precisely-choreographed movement of his actors look completely spontaneous, which lends vivid immediacy to the production." & "A sharp, entertaining look at the agonies and ecstasies of making theater today." (Michael Sommers-Star-Ledger)
"A familiar problem at birthdays is what to give the celebrant who has everything. The problem with reviewing '[title of show],' a vest-pocket and sweaty-collar musical, is what to say about a show that has nothing." & "90 minutes' worth of unremitting torture for anyone with a shred of good taste, discernment and normal eardrums." (John Simon-Bloomberg)
"But the bottom line about this musical is talent: Both creators have oodles of it. Bowen's songs are sharp and witty in a conventional Broadway mode, and Bell's dialogue - which pretends to be happening in "real time," as the show evolves before us onstage - is similarly droll and topical. And both guys happen to be solid performers, as are the women with whom they share the stage." & "It's fresh, smart and funny. And those virtues are timeless." (Jacques Le Sourd-Journal News)
"May be small – that’s the point, actually – but it produces some of the best laughs on Broadway." & "The music in “[title of show]” is no more than serviceable, but Bowen’s lyrics and Bell’s book are whip-smart. And the performances are totally ingratiating." & "A terrifically appealing mix of tart and sweet that’s funny all over. It deserves a happy Broadway ending." (Robert Feldberg-The Record)
"A slyly funny yet surprisingly sweet-tempered look at following your dreams and remaining true to yourself as you suffer _ and suffer _ the pangs of artistic creation. " (Michael Kuchwara-Associated Press)
"Stands pathetically naked on Broadway." & "The backstage show by Hunter Bell (book) and Jeff Bowen (score) is revealed in all its narcissism, flaunting its shallow aesthetic values and taking unseemly pride in its inflated ambitions." (Marilyn Staio-Variety)
