Mon, 11 Jun 2001 17:10:53 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author levda - When I look back at high school, I remember one teacher, Ms. VW (as we called her). She was my AP English teacher and she was probably the most demanding teacher I’ve ever had (college included). What I remember is the enthusiasm she had for...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MARIEROY - From the TV previews I watched during the past month I looked forward to viewing this movie, especially being that it stars one of my favorite actors, Emma Thompson (Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility.)

I think if I came away with one word...

trvl-Theater-Off Broadway-Wit: Wit: bring Kleenex -- and maybe a dictionary

Thu, 1 Jun 2000 04:27:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tanster - When I first saw the poster for Wit, a portrait of Judith Light in half shadow, completely bald and donning nothing but a baseball cap and a serene heavenward gaze, I knew that I had to put some Kleenex in my purse before heading out for the...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kzandy - This is one of the most emotionally wrenching theatre experiences I've ever had. This play, honestly, changed my view of theatre for the rest of my life. I know it's closing soon (has already closed?), but PLEASE don't cheat yourself out of seeing W;t...

trvl-Theater-Off Broadway-Wit: painfully good, and genuinely funny

Thu, 30 Mar 2000 13:01:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Vicki - In a better world, W;t would be playing to sellout crowds on Broadway.

As it is, I got a discount ticket at the Union Square Theatre one day in advance, a good seat at that (there are advantages to going to the theatre alone: the box office may have...

trvl-Theater-Off Broadway-Wit: W;t, a m@st-rp!c

Wed, 22 Mar 2000 13:16:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author McGuffin - Wit is one of the most fantastic pieces of writing I have had the opportunity to see.

I saw Wit in the fall, while Judith Light was still playing the lead. I went into the show with the same skepticism that I bring to anything that the...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author YentaKvetch - You want me to see a play about a woman dying of cancer? Yes, that is exactly what YentaKvetch is recommending. If "Wit" is coming to a theater near you, rush out and buy a ticket.

YentaKvetch saw this play on March 5, 2000, at the...

trvl-Theater-Off Broadway-Wit: heartwrenching, and beautiful

Tue, 8 Feb 2000 21:48:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NaomiLeah - I saw W;t with one of my theatre classes, and had honestly never heard of it before. When I heard that the star was Judith Light, I was surprised, because I always think of her in Who's the Boss, and made-for-tv-movies.

The play itself is a drama...
