DON'T DRESS FOR DINNER at the Roundabout's American Airlines Theatre

(Seen May 3, 2912)


All my actor and director friends seems to agree with me, that when you're playing farce, you play for the reality of it, not the farce.

In Marc Camoletti's new play, the luckless performers seem to be trying to outdo one another in their outward foolishness, in line readings, facial expressions, and other physical gestures and posturing.

It is an embarrassing display of mis-used talent, who I shall leave nameless, but who are strangely unrestrained by the very talented director, John Tillinger.
