“Lane has always been a top-shelf stage actor, and as Roy Cohn he is at the top of his game.”

Funny Girl

“With Isobel Lennart's book reworked some by Harvey Fierstein, Funny Girl is at its best when the comedy is front and center, and Feldstein is a first-rate comedian who knows how to mine a scene for every laugh.”

The Iceman Cometh

“Wolfe is one of the A-est of A-list theater directors today, and he has given us a production to remember.”

The Lehman Trilogy

“It is an engrossing, welcome return to Broadway from the pandemic, and like its source material, it is a big deal.”

The Prom

“Ineptitude, inflated egos and teenage angst will likely never be this much fun.”
