Linden Dominates in The Rothschilds on Broadway
UPI drama critic Jack Gaver notes Hal Linden delivers a star-making performance as Mayer Rothschild in The Rothschilds at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater. Linden’s command anchors a strong ensemble led by Paul Hecht, Leila Martin, and Keene Curtis, with direction by Michael Kidd. The piece highlights character over song, while Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick supply a serviceable score.
