Boston Meisner Acting Classes

So if you haven’t seen STRANGE LOOP at the BCA, it’s better than it was on Broadway. I have said this exactly never about any show in Boston. There are tickets on Art Boston for today which is the last night. $46 to sit in the Orchestra. I almost want to go back and that would be the third time.

Why is it better in Boston? The direction is impeccable and brilliant. In New York City the self-referential part of the play seemed a little sophomoric because of the way it was played and directed. Here the self-referential part of the play is so conscious and funny that it adds to the overall brilliance.

Also, there are a lot of references to Tyler Perry, and then the costuming adds to the comedy and the acting references Tyler Perry style acting, and it all weaves together. It’s in the writing, but this is a Director, who knew how to realize it.

Finally, the lead is stunning. He plays the angst of the main character with the kind of heart that one Jennifer Hudson and Oscar for Dreamgirls. Talking about leaving it all on the stage. He’s funny, his physicality is amazing, and his heart is huge.

The ambition and reach of the plays realized. I could go on and on. See it there’s only one day left.
