Oscar Levant

Review: GOOD NIGHT OSCAR at Asolo Repertory Theatre
by Jacob Ruscoe - Apr 15, 2025

I am on a journey of not only seeing shows that I have never seen before, but also ones that I have never heard of before. This is rare with someone with extensive theatre knowledge but such was the case at the Asolo Repertory Theatre. The stage was set for a touching exploration of one of the 20th century's most fascinating figures: Oscar Levant. 'Good Night, Oscar,' directed by the talented Peter Amster, is a masterful blend of humor, poignancy, and insight into the life of a man who oscillated between brilliance and despair. This compelling one-act play unfolds without an intermission, allowing the audience to immerse themselves fully in the rhythm of Levant's life.
