As the run of Oliver Goldsmith's comic masterpiece, She Stoops to Conquer,draws to a close, by all means rush to catch it while you can. You will see an endlessly amusing and enlightening classic, a handsome set, and a cast of highly talented actors, including WTF favorites like Richard Easton, Paxton Whitehead, and Brooks Ashmanskas. The production is fast-moving—at the cost of some excessive trimming—and funny, as a good part of the audience found it. That said, it is a far-from-perfect production, in fact it is seriously flawed, but that shouldn't stop anyone from seeing the show and enjoying it. There is a lot to enjoy, and much of the audience laughed uproariously at Kristin Neilsen's wildly exaggerated portrayal of Mrs. Hardcastle. You may even find that you are among them.
