I made a return visit to PIPPIN to see our dear mate Tovah Feldshuh swinging from the trapeze as Pippin's grandmother Berthe. Andrea Martin won the Tony Award for the role but Tovah brought a new and equally valid interpretation and stopped the show cold.
She finishes her limited engagement this weekend and returns to her award winning one-woman show GOLDA'S BALCONY. It was interesting to see how PIPPIN had grown several months down the track. Some performances were broader, some less disciplined but the standard was uniformly top notch and it's still one of the best evenings in town.
And I was VERY proud of our talented (and flexible) friend!
