Laughter in Row H

My good friend, Lonny, and I ventured up to Addison's WaterTower Theatre to catch their latest offering, Laughter on the 23rd Floor. The ensemble cast was terrific, and the show garnered a multitude of laughs from the nearly full house on Wednesday evening. I have seen very few plays by professional companies over the years, (The Odd Couple at Theatre Three, Shadowlands at Contemporary Theatre of Dallas, and A Christmas Carol at Dallas Theatre Center when I was in high school) and they have all been excellent, but this production stands out from the crowd. The pace was popping, and the set, staging, and lighting were all top-notch.

The show runs through February 7th. Even if you aren't usually a huge Neil Simon fan, you will regret it if you miss this show.
