BWW Review: J. Robert Moore is Sheer Perfection in BUYER AND CELLAR
by Frank Benge - Jun 17, 2016


BUYER AND CELLAR, by Jonathan Tolins, is a deliciously dishy piece of theatre that came to life because of Barbra Streisand's book My Passion for Design. The play, a winner of the 2014-2015 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Solo Show, tells you right from the start that the only thing that is the truth about what you will be seeing is that Streisand really does have an underground mall where her possessions and costumes are all displayed… and she is the sole customer. Alex (J. Robert Moore) is a struggling Hollywood actor who takes the oddest of odd jobs: working in the underground mall at Streisand's Malibu home. He is alone there, trapped between the sounds of the frozen yogurt machine and the popcorn machine, until he has a surprise visit from the Diva herself. They begin to play and bond in the basement; but as their bond deepens, Alex begins to wonder if their budding relationship will ever make it out of that basement. The show is hilariously funny, and a touching examination of the isolation and loneliness of fame.
