Present Laughter NYC Reviews and Tickets

See it if You like dated plays with decent staging and good casting

Don't see it if You want a relevant play with outstanding staging

See it if You enjoy English farce from another time.

Don't see it if Couldn't care less about English farce.

See it if you love Kevin Kline! He alone is worth the price of the ticket. Perfect casting all around.

Don't see it if you despise a director allowing caricatures and characters in the same show. Start of 2nd act is dull, Dull, DULL.

See it if you enjoy a good old fashioned Noel Coward play with star talent. Kevin Kline is superb, as is Kate Burton and the rest of the cast.

Don't see it if you want to see something that's going to keep you laughing the entire time. It was humorous but not as funny as I had hoped.

See it if You love classic, dry, high-brow British comedies, or would be happy to see Kevin Kline act the phone book.

Don't see it if You think this will be a raucous comedy — it’s not. Even with a good central performance, this is long and tedious.

See it if Great cast and set/lighting design. Some clever/funny deliveries and stage directions. Energetic audience.

Don't see it if The material is somewhat dated and the urgent need for a revival is unclear.

See it if a British farce is kinda your thing

Don't see it if a British farce is not your thing

See it if you like Kristine Nelson. I expected all-out funny and it was amusing in places. I think I saw it on an off night.

Don't see it if you dislike an annoying character who keeps appearing and no one tells him "Begone". One member of our party left at intermission.
