- Summary
- Theater critics John Heilpern, Michael Kuchwara, and Jacques le Sourd discuss the current situation facing members of their profession with hosts Michael Riedel and Susan Haskins. It is suggested that because the newspaper business is in trouble nationwide, owners of the surviving franchises seem to feel that keeping critics on the payroll is a luxury they can no longer afford. The impact of the Internet is considered as well. The assembled critics also discuss several current productions, including Billy Elliot and Liza at the Palace, as well as revivals of All my sons, Equus, Speed-the-plow, The seagull, and Garden of earthly delights.
