During the first half hour of Richard Raskind's world premiere The Bridge Club, I was genuinely engaged by its unusual set of circumstances, its believable dialogue and two main characters Jack (Christopher Franciosa) and Sue (Nancy Dobbs Owen). I really got to like both of them and so wanted the play to go in a linear direction. Alas, Raskind veered 100% away from that, and to some, who like their dramas akin to TV's Touched by an Angel, that will bring pleasure. I wanted more. Now under Mike Sabatino's steady direction and fine cast, The Bridge Club, despite its theatrical letdown, is still entertaining fare...and don't let its title deceive you, it's not about a group of oldsters playing cards.
