Kudos for Premiere of “8” in L.A.

Thanks to a live stream on YouTube, last night I watched a play premiering in Los Angeles as it was happening. The star studded cast created a memorable experience. I, for one, was enlightened by the play and will add my voice to the fight for marriage equality.

All of the performers did a wonderful job but it was especially amusing to see Brad Pitt as the judge - he was his usual dapper and mesmerizing self. (What a great casting choice because – even in a room full of stars - he would have been too distracting anywhere else on the stage). John C. Reilly gave a stellar performance (bringing much needed laughs to a serious courtroom setting) and Martin Sheen delivered a brilliant, impassioned portrayal that left me speechless.
Director/Producer, Rob Reiner made seasoned casting choices that really pulled it together. You can read more about the play and its participants in the Daily Reporter: West Coast Premiere of Marriage-Rights Play
