THE RITZ

BY ED BRUCE edbrucevegas@yahoo.com

This the current play for Las Vegas Little Theatre....doing great sold out business.....not for me !Did not like it at all, altho it had some moments ! This another of the groups edgy approaches into taste which does not bother me..... I just did not like it....kind of corny with the endless theme of Noises Off and revolving doors. The fault is in the author Terrence McNally (not Arhur Miller).....don't know how this could be saved....LVLT's poor choice of plays for me.

Started late...... two hours plus, nice program, nice set...some pretty good work by some actors...not so good by others....the theme....family fracas into a gay bathhouse.....odd, often amusing totally unbelievable with great production effort....I am pleased others enjoyed it and I root for LVLT.....they are credible and aggressive and I always say give them a try.
