STOCKARD CHANNING’s ‘Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered’ is a consummate bit of musical-theatre performing. MATTHEW RISCH has a sexy confidence tinged with more than a little naughtiness. MARTHA PLIMPTON is A REVELATION and A JOY TO WATCH!”

You’ll come out singing the songs and dancing in the streets!”
