Entertaining and intelligent but could have been more interesting

See it if You want a very conventional take on the story. I think the set should have been simpler. A few very good actresses and rich writing

Don't see it if You don't like big ensemble casts. Lots of characters to follow, which is definitely part of the fun.

See it if you enjoy plays about the human experience, with little to no plot!

Don't see it if you are looking for something fun and silly.

"Their interactions, their glances, their physical and vocal ticks and their continuous comings and goings keep 'Hot l Baltimore' interesting. There are a few lulls in this staging and some overacting, which will probably be worked out as the cast continues to work together during the run of the ...

"How will it stand up after 42 years? Answer: it stands up very well indeed. It is not freshened up or updated. It remains wonderful... Act 1 roars along like the freight trains referenced throughout. In Act 2 the pace slackens a bit and not to advantage. Even so, there is more than enough to ...
