Brief Encounter -- Theater Review

Empty

London's Kneehigh Theatre has had more than a brief encounter with "Brief Encounter," its exhilarating multimedia adaptation of the classic David Lean film written by Noel Coward. Originally presented at a converted movie theater in London, the production has made several stops in the U.S., including San Francisco's ACT, Minneapolis' Guthrie and Brooklyn's St. Ann's Warehouse. It now has returned for a welcome Broadway run being presented by the Roundabout Theatre Company at Studio 54, a vintage theater built during the 1920s that suits this unique show exceedingly well.
