First reviews of Perot play. ONLY 6 shows left!

In olden days of New York’s Broadway theater scene, actors, directors and producers retreated to Sardi’s restaurant waiting for the early editions of The New York Times and other newspapers.

What did the reviews say? Many a show closed immediately after a thumbs down from professional critics.

Today, there are hardly any opening night reviewers left in the land. But to find out what initial audiences think, you gotta go to Facebook.

How did Theatre Coppell’s world debut production of PEROT! American Patriot perform in its first three of nine shows at the Coppell Arts Center?

Let’s pretend we’re at Sardi’s and the early editions are in. These are from theater lovers who attended opening weekend:

“WOWZA!!! Just saw Dave Lieber’s play. Full house! Carl Merritt, the actor who played Perot, nailed it. Great stage, visuals and memories. Beautiful theater. Grab your tickets while you can.” – Linda Swindling

“A wonderful evening. It brought back memories of Ross Perot with many laughs and a few tears.” – Garry Hamilton

“An uplifting and patriotic remembrance of a larger than life American. Highly recommend.” – Dr. Nancy Davis.

“A fabulous tribute to Ross…. Not a bad seat in the house.” – Jill Passes Tillery

“The spirit of Ross Perot was brought back to life. I felt the pride of being an American again.” — Tim Wafford, who has seen the play twice already.
