Here's a story I wasn't expecting to see, but as Newsday critic Linda Winer writes "After four premiere push-backs (now to Feb. 7), four high-profile injuries, 19 previews at full price ($75-$150, almost double through brokers), and public investigations by state and federal safety agencies, it seems that critics are now the only interested parties who can't see the bride before the wedding."

So, she bought a ticket. She doesn't flat out review the show, but, many of her opinions clearly make their way to the surface via comments from audience members that she speaks with...

We're clearly living in interesting times...

Next question, will other critics follow suit?
