THE LITTLE FOXES at the Pasadena Playhouse was worth the long drive to Pasadena from the Westside on a Friday night. No matter how dated this play is, Lillian Hellman’s words are wonderful to hear and hear rightly by this magnificent cast headed by the lovely Kelly McGillis, Julia Duffy and the men, too numerous to mention in this small space were all great as were the African American household couple,Yvette Cason and Cleavant Derricks.
This greedy, “aristocratic” Southern family with their machinations to “get more” could be part of our own contemporary world. Things don’t change much, do they?
Back to THE LITTLE FOXES, please try to see this at the Playhouse in Pasadena before the 28th of June. You will be amazed at the gorgeous set in this opulent Southern 1900 home and Damaso Rodriguez’s direction is perfecto.
Gosh, this was long. I don’t write reviews, just a short couple of lines. What came over me? I guess I liked it.
Hugs, Harriette
