“I don’t know if I’d run to see ’Frank & Percy’ in less expert hands. But the present company makes it an experience worth treasuring even as you wonder just when the indefatigable McKellen will return to the theatre once again.”

“I wanted to like ’Frank and Percy’ more. It stars two of our most accomplished and personable actors; it’s quite amusing; and it carries sweet messages about friendship, love and the ability to surprise oneself later in life.
