I thought Martha Plimpton was great, but Katie Finneran was probably my favorite. People in the theater went BONKERS for LuPone.
Seeing Company and Beginners back-to-back should make for a pretty reflective weekend for this late-30s single lady, I tell you what.
Colbert was...not as good as I would have wished. He did something funky with his voice during his solo. He was funny in the comedy bits with Martha Plimpton, though.
I agree. Liked his acting. His singing was a little, I dunno, thin. Yeah, Finneran was fantastic.
And it wasn't at all awkward that I was there with a married couple!

Well, they can't all be gems. Guess I'm definitely seeing Super 8 (83%) tonight instead.
Green Lantern: 22%
ouch
If X-Men is still at my little theatre I'm considering a matinee.
The reviews I've read of Green Lantern have been brutal.
Tickets for a Sunday showing of Company - purchased. Yay!
