Joan Hamburg's Impression of 'Impressionism'



LISTEN TO THE REVIEW


A wonderful cast including Jeremy Irons, Joan Allen and an underused Marsha Mason can’t quite pull off the story behind “Impressionism.” This Broadway play, after a lot of false starts just opened at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theater on West 45th Street.  The play goes back and forth between impressionistic paintings and the characters whose lives are affected by the same forces- light, location, moment in time. Although I was happy to be in the company of such good performers the play does not have “enough legs” to hold the attention of a general audience.
