OHMYGOD HEY!

Last month, I saw 23 shows in 2 weeks in New York, including these 4 Broadway plays:

• Proof at the Booth Theatre
• Giant at the Music Box Theatre
• Joe Turner's Come and Gone at the Barrymore Theatre
• Dog Day Afternoon at the August Wilson Theatre

These productions have been recognised as some of the most and least artistically successful new productions of the season, and today I'm sharing my verdict on each.

Check out what I thought of the writing, creative choices, and performances!
