A production that redeemed Canadian Stage. Len Cariou was amazing as Nixon, - he didn't look like him, but he was him!
We actually remember exactly where we were the evening Nixon resigned - Antoine's restaurant on Eglinton. We were annoyed because one of the other patron's insisted the television be left on for the speech. Antoine gave us free dessert or something in compensation.
I agree - great Nixon without trying to look like him.
ReplyDeleteI remember Frost as more of a shark and less of a fool than presented here, but I was younger then.
It will be interesting to see (next month) the film of the Broadway version that received such raves.
