"an inventive work, lyrical and stark at the same time... a commanding performance... the role repeatedly requires Ms. Griffith to accomplish a radical transformation in an eye blink, and she couldn't be more convincing"
-- The New York Times
"Bernfield whittles Woods into a gorgeously limber fantasy. A characteristically handsome production from New Georges, made even lusher by composer Rachel Peters' romantic compositions. But it's Griffith we're there to see. The performance... it's indelible."
-- Time Out New York
Rose Mary Woods (Richard M. Nixon's secretary of 23 years) testified that a slip of her foot when she reached for the phone produced blank and buzzy Watergate tape. Streeetch! She retired to Ohio, where she died 2 days after the 2nd inauguration of President George W. Bush.
Imagine the final days of Rose Woods. In a nursing home in the swinging-est swing state of 'em all. Observing the presidential election of 2004. Thinking about power, and loyalty, and lying. And having some very strange dreams... |
