Mint Theater's TEMPORAL POWERS Closes 10/2
Mint Theater's productin of Temporal Powers will close on October 2nd at the Mint's home in the heart of the theater district, 311 West 43rd Street. Ben Brantley, in The New York Times Arts & Leisure (August 21st) hailed the Mint as the 'resurrectionist extraordinaire of forgotten plays.'
Review - Temporal Powers
There would be far fewer complaints about having too many revivals on Broadway if they were all done the way the Mint Theater Company does them. Under artistic director Jonathan Banks, each piece mounted in their intimate space has an interesting story behind it, usually that of a forgotten playwright or a rarely-produced piece by someone few associate with writing plays. Their productions define the most positive aspects of museum-quality theatre, with visuals and interpretations that take you back to the time when the play was contemporary, rather than dressing the play in a manner that forces it to relate to contemporary times.
