Detroit at Playwrights Horizons

I forgot to mention that we went to see Detroit at Playwrights Horizons Theater.  It doesn’t actually open officially until tomorrow so it’s probably not fair to say that it really isn’t worth going to see.  The buzz was that it did so well in previews they were going to bring it to Broadway.  It opened Off-Broadway with the following cast: Amy Ryan, David Schwimmer, Darren Pettie, Sarah Sokolovic, and John Cullum. Detroit is about the relationship between two couples who are new neighbors and I think is supposed to be a comedy.  Other than Darren Pettie, the cast is a waste and the play a tad lame.  A good friend of ours couldn’t join us because she caught a bug….this would not have helped her in any way.  It had a running time of 100 minutes with no intermissions [afraid to let the audience escape?].
