Reviews, powerless and otherwise
Over at BBC News, I just found an article about Ben Brantley, the influential New York Times critic. A good read, largely dealing with big-budget Broadway shows. But he also says this:
For real creative vitality, you have to look in some of the darker side streets of Manhattan these days… Often the most satisfying theatre is the sparsest. You get the inventiveness… For those smaller, more independent ventures, if you [the critic] are very encouraging about a production — you can certainly help it get grants, if not audiences.
We know! We invite you to our next production, Mr Brantley.
