Flora the Red Menace at Leo Lerner Theatre
Pollak reviews Flora the Red Menace at Leo Lerner Theatre noting its grim 1930s setting and weak revival choice. John Kander and Fred Ebb show early promise with songs like All I Need Is One Good Break and A Quiet Thing while Maria Friedman shines despite an amateur cast. The piece suggests the Communist era mood is not suited to comedy and the show mostly disappoints.
