5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Theatre Book, April 9, 2000
This review is from: The Best Plays of 1998-1999 (Hardcover)
This is a true treasure of a book. What the editor does is he: Reviews the year in theatre for New York (Broadway, Off Broadway, and Off-Off Broadway), which is great for theatre enthusiasts (like myself) who don't live anywhere near New York. Produces synopsis of the prize winning plays of the season (He covers the New York Critics, The Lortel, The Tony, and The Pulitzer prizes/awards). He used to choose ten of the best plays of the season, but changed to the abover system in the 1996-97 season. This season, the plays he covers are: Wit, Side Man, Fosse, Closer, Parade, and Not About Nightingales.

Also included are a whole schwak of pictures and lists of the award winners, the longest running plays, and an entire list of plays that made the Best Plays Yearbook before.

This is an absolute must for anyone with love for theatre. The reviews are great and intelligent, the synposis are fun to read, and the Hirschfelds are great to look at. This book will provide hours of a old-fashioned broadway lore, and you will be blissfully lost at home.
