The happily hyperactive comedy provides missteps and mayhem.
,” the happily hyperactive comedy that opened Wednesday night on Broadway, provides: missteps, mayhem, incapacitations, faulty sets and, in a roundabout way, “Fawlty Towers.”
Chris , the play-within-a-play’s director and its Captain Hook, is the spitting image of John Cleese as the famous Britcom “Fawlty Towers”’ Basil, the beleaguered hotel owner. And like Basil, he exaggeratedly tries to keep everything together and bungles it every time. Poor Robert also has PTSD from a fatal production of “Oliver!”, and Sandra acts like she’s a hippie dancing in a field as Wendy. The quick change Annie makes from Mrs. Darling to the maid is an actor’s risqué nightmare.
