A Steady Rain 先行公演 評判上々

昨日（アメリカ時間の９月１０日木曜日）、'A Steady Rain'の先行公演が行われ、観客のインタビュー記事がありましたので、転載します。

From interviews with audience members after the show, the crowd was impressed.

"They were probably better than I expected," said Matt Serota, a young theatergoer from Long Island. "It was amazing how they were able to go from very docile to grab-your-throat (intensity) against each other, against the audience."
Christine Martino and Caye Hursey, friends visiting New York from California, spilled out of the theater eagerly discussing the play.
"The complexity of the story and their acting was amazing," said Martino. "I think that's why they did it — actors do this for themselves and to show other people what they can really do besides just the big-ticket stuff."
After the play, throngs assembled around the stage doors. More than 100 people waited for glimpses of the two stars, including Jillian Smith, an Australian who was glad for the chance to see her "countryman," Jackman, on Broadway.

Producers are hoping such enthusiasm for the two stars of "A Steady Rain" translates to big box office. The play will sport the highest regular ticket price for a play (not a musical) on Broadway.
Top weekend tickets will go for $130 each, climbing to $140 Thanksgiving weekend and for Dec. 4-6, the final weekend of the production's 12-week limited engagement.
"A Steady Rain," written by Keith Huff and directed by John Crowley, officially premieres Sept. 29.
