The Goat reviews from listmembers:
"The show was incredibly bold, daring, and absolutely
uninhibited, there were words and taboo topics flying around I never expected to hear in
an R rated movie, let alone in a theatre. I absolutely loved everyone's performance, but
obviously it was Bill who sent my heart thumping." (Ildi)
"That was the funniest, saddest thing I have ever seen in my
life.... It was so intense." (Sue)
"The show. The show was amazing.
That’s the word I keep coming up with. You know, a movie critic by the name of James
Agee once refused to review Roberto Rossellini’s film, “Rome: Open City”
because no words could do it justice. That’s how I feel about “The Goat.”
Go see it. Then you’ll know. Amazing." (Carrie)
"I absolutely loved
it - I recommend it to anyone who may be coming to NY - I am going to buy tickets tomorrow
for April - if I can get them. You must see this play - I loved it!!! It has TONY written
all over it. For the writing, best actor and best actress. Mercedes Ruehl is incredible.
Bill Pullman is so great in displaying the many layers of this play and the character, by
the end of the play you are weeping with him..." (Gio)
“The Goat” itself is a
thrilling play because it’s hard to imagine where it’s going to go and the
journey is all at once funny, painful, ridiculous and emotionally and psychologically
searing. The performances are all superb and passionately done. Bill does a very rich, subtle,complicated
performance that builds to a great crescendo. At
one very intense moment for his character, I saw real tears in his eyes. (Mary Anne) |
