The Artist Responds

Within minutes of my posting comments about last night's performance of "Monsieur Chopin," Hershey Felder was kind enough to respond by e-mail. I thought you might appreciate reading his words:

"What a lovely, thoughtful (and spot on) analysis of the production. In fact, you captured all the inherent ideas - even the skewed proscenium... perhaps best to begin writing theatre reviews? Rarely do I encounter 'professional' reviewers with your capacity of observation. Thank you for attending! Hope to see you next time around!

Hersh"
