Terrence McNally's erotically charged play explores the thoughts of a narcissistic conductor as he leads an orchestra through Wagner's "Tristan und Isolde." Wayland Pickard and Sherry Netherland direct. Larry Eisenberg heads the cast, with fellow repertory members Jayne Clement, Matt Ryan, Roberta Orlandi and Klair Bybee. Contains strong sexual language; for mature audiences.
Running concurrently with "Comic Potential," by Alan Ayckbourn (Fri.-Sat. at 8 p.m. and Sun. at 2 p.m.)

AND DING YOUR OUT THOUSAND OAKS, CA WE DROVE ALL THE WAY TO NOHO BASDE ON THE 4 REVIEWS LISTED HERE!! SHAME ON YOU!! DO YOU FOLKS NOT GET OUT MUCH, WERE YOU PAID TO SUBMIT YOUR REVIEWS OR IS IT JUST THAT YOU HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER IN THE CAST OR PRODUCTION? THIS PRODUCTION LEFT US COLD, PROBABLY BECAUSE WE WENT IN WITH EXPECTATIONS FUELED BY YOUR REVIEWS!! IT COULD HAVE MADE SOME DIFFERENCE IF THERE HAD BEEN SOME CARE AS TO THE "LIGHTING OF THE SET" OR THE SET ITSELF.... CREATING A MOOD.... SHAME ON PRODUCTION FOR BEING SO CHEAP AND THOUGHTLESS. HAVING SAID ALL THAT THE LEAD ACTOR IS TO BE COMMENDED ON HIS PERFORMANCE!! April 30, 2008
Nancy Van Nuys, CA Do not miss this one! It’s an imaginative, complex blend of drama, humor & eroticism, and it gives excellent actors an opportunity to show their wares (which the cast definitely does). Larry Eisenberg perforates his egomaniacal conductor with enough vulnerability to make the plot surprises believable, and Matt Ryan’s intent fascination his idol is real and engaging. You may not want to take any of the characters home to meet your mama, but the characters will all get to you the way music gets to all of them. April 16, 2008
John Woodland Hills, CATerrific show....Never seen anything quite like this; timed entirely to Wagner's gorgeous music. Performances terrific but occasionally had trouble hearing. Definitely worth seeing, a real roller-coaster. Write a review | Read more reviews |
