PASSION
FEBRUARY 8 – APRIL 19, 2013
“EXQUISITE… of all the formidable directors who have staged Mr. Sondheim’s musicals, no one cuts closer to their heart than John Doyle. Judy Kuhn endows Fosca with a directness and honesty that makes her the most sympathetic–and perversely sane–I have seen. Melissa Errico lends dimension and texture to a Clara who isn’t, in this version, all surface. Ryan Silverman gives a performance of risk-taking, unconditional emotional commitment.” – The New York Times
