Description
Tom Stoppard has written a jukebox musical. Even in director Charles Newell's handsome Chicago premiere—his simple staging focuses mainly on actors and words, giving the text no place to hide—Rock 'n' Roll comes off like so many American plays about the baby-boomer experience of the same era, packed with earnest, didactic (and often boring) arguments about communism and Czech politics. Accomplished performances by Mary Beth Fisher and Timothy Edward Kane, among others, can't shake off the feeling that the characters are there simply to connect the dots between the playwright's favorite songs.—CPWhen
