I thought the three hours flew and then reading the play afterwards brought it all home. I began to understand it more. It's a show that makes you think long after seeing it. I am planning on seeing it again with the play still fresh in my head. One let down, I am an admirer of Mr. Cox but I found his performance a tad false. Mr. Sewell's performance was extraordinary.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797035092645713329.post-401293469677332372007-11-07T14:38:00.000-05:002007-11-07T14:38:00.000-05:00I've just put a link to your blog up on the Rufus ...I've just put a link to your blog up on the Rufus Sewell Forum because I think anyone going to see Rock 'n' Roll should bear this in mind. <BR/><BR/>I saw it London and then again on it's first preview night in New York and what you say is spot on. And I will tell you, that its something that improves upon viewing. Each time you'll understand more of the nuance and symbolism(I haven't seen a single critic even touch upon the allegory of Eleanor's body being carved up and de-humanized, and what was happening in Eastern Europe at the time.)And there are tons of them.<BR/><BR/>Then of course I would wax poetic for hours about what a brilliant and gifted artist is Rufus Sewell. Repeat performances only begin to let one exerience the layers he has brought to the character of Jan.<BR/><BR/>okay, enough from me. It's your blog. <BR/><BR/>thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
