The Gingerbread Lady theater review and cast critique
The reviewer dissectes performances by Barbara Miller Mary Jenkins and Denis Lonon in The Gingerbread Lady, calling Toby Lan dau vain and despicable while praising Miller’s intensity and Lonon’s restrained take. Lou appears brief and overbearing, the plot deemed tired with little entertainment value, but the production may offer some pleasure to viewers who enjoy sharp misanthropy. The review notes disengagement from the audience and questions the play’s lasting impact while announcing upcoming showings.
