BWW Reviews: SCR's Splendid 4000 MILES Stirs Deep Emotions
Funny, intelligent, and profoundly moving, Amy Herzog's play 4000 MILES---now on stage at South Coast Repertory in Costa Mesa through November 17---is a bittersweet, emotionally rich play filled with heart-tugging situations and amusing true-to-life moments between a grandmother and her grandson. Directed by David Emmes and featuring an outstanding performance by TV/Stage vet Jenny O'Hara, Herzog's stirring play feels mostly like a well-paced collection of interesting conversations that we just happen to eavesdrop on like proverbial flies on a wall.
