If any of you have plans to be NYC after Oct 12,
I'd suggest tickets to Tom Stoppard's play ROCK 'N' ROLL.
I saw it in London and plan on seeing it again here.
Syd Barrett is a sort of character, too.Brian Cox, Sinead Cusack and Rufus Sewell, who appeared in the London company, will also star in New York. They'll probably stay 3-6 months and then be replaced."It's August 1968," (the cheesy)press notes state, "and Russian tanks are rolling in to Prague. Jan, the Czech student, lives for rock music, Max, the English professor, lives for Communism and Esme, the flower child, is high. By 1990, the tanks are rolling out, the Stones are rolling in and idealism has hit the wall. A deeply felt look at the connection between rock music and revolution, Stoppard's sweeping and witty play spans two countries, three generations and 22 turbulent years, at the end of which love remains — and so does rock 'n' roll."Tickets are available at telecharge.com even though their fees suck. But, based on Stoppard's big Tony win last year and the acclaim of this play, booking ahead is definitely advised.
