A little surprised that Im the first posting this, but pretty big deal offering and coming out of nowhere.

Very excited about this!

It's not totally out of nowhere - this production already played the Old Vic in London, and high-profile British production often play BAM. That said, I wasn't expecting it, and it's a very exciting surprise!

True. But considering how high profile these names are, not to mention Warchus who is incredibly in-demand, I’m surprised this got announced without any noticeable early goss.

I personally can’t wait!

I saw this in London, it’s good, not great. It’s wonderful to watch those two actors work together live, it’s just the two of them on stage the entire time. It’s quite short with no interval. There is on stage seating, or at least there was in London.

I’ll disagree because I did think it was great and I’m thrilled I’ll get to see it again over here.

Also saw it in London and it was thrilling. Some of the best stage acting I saw this year.

I was lucky enough to see it in London too, and thought it was the best thing I saw that trip. Very funny, moving, and beautifully acted. I’ll be out of town for the BAM run, so I’m so glad I was able to see it then, but I’m glad New York audiences are getting the chance!
