The Corn Is Green at Weston Playhouse Review
Weston Playhouse presents The Corn Is Green directed by Harlan F. Grant with Jean Goodale as Miss Moffat and Richard Levenson as a miner turned Oxford student. The reviewer notes muted emotional depth from Goodale but praises the set and some natural humor from Chris Lloyd while criticizing the audience’s appetite for risqué lines and the overall tempered comedic tone of the revival.
