 Rating:  - unexpected delight SSlings and Arrows was completely unfamiliar to me when a colleague recommended it so highly that I uncharacteristically "went for it' and bought the entire set. I watched the first episode, and found myself following with the second and third etc. I am convinced and found it really difficult to stop! Delightful and entertaining, it weaves a spell all its own. Great portrayals of interesting and unusual theater folk who find themselves unravelling along with their theatre company. Rating: - Slings and ArrowsOne of the smartest, funniest, most entertaining shows ever on television. Finally a show that doesn't assume its audience can't read or write. BRAVO!!! It's an insider's guide to the woes of producing theatre festivals, actors' struggles, the richness of Shakespeare, and an insightful view of what it means to create an aesthetic experience (as seen from both those who appreciate and understand, and those who don't understand the need or get it on any level).

Rating: - Slings & Arrows Is Not To Be Missed!Having attended the Stratford Festival in the past, this was a perfect compliment/send-up of what it could be like to mount a Shakespearean festival. Not only is this witty, well-written and well-acted; but it also provides short excerpts from Hamlet, Macbeth & King Lear. Just wish they had done more than three seasons. My only complaint is that the "extras" CD was not very informative. |
