November


November was everything that you could ever want and hope for from a broadway show.  The actors were true tour de forces in their craft, with stand out performances from all five actors.  (Personal favorites included Laurie Metcalf and Nathan Lane)  The show's energy and commitment truly invigorated me as a young actor and instilled a true yearning to make a pact with myself that I will in my life taste at least a small morsel of what was achieved on that stage.  

What happened in silence was just as riveting as the written words that were spoken by true talents.  Nathan Lane was such a force of nature on stage.  It revealed to me what happens when someone follows and does exactly what they were meant to do in life.  Nathan Lane was meant to be on that stage delivering those words.  Never have I seen an instantaneous standing ovation, and never had I truly heard thunderous applause that shook the theater like I saw that day.

See this show.
