In a rare (OK, unprecedented) turn of events, I have seen two Broadway productions nominated for Tony awards. Saw Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf? with Bill Erwin and Kathleen Turner, and it was wrenchingly excellent. I had never seen the play and only bits of the movie, so this was a tah-reat. Then last week, saw the revival of Glengarry Glen Ross, with Alan Alda, Liev Schrieber, Frederick Weller, Tom Wopat, Gordon Clapp, and Jeffrey Tambor. Fanfuckingtastic and highly recommended as well. Big fan of the movie, of course. The whole cast was good, but Alda and Schrieber in particular blew the roof off. Go forth and see these two. If you live elsewhere, sell enough crack for a plane ticket and orchestra seats. You won't be sorry, especially if you save a little crack for the flight home.
