What Did Critic's Think Of The Damned?
The critics have given their verdict on Ivo van Hove's, The Damned, at Park Avenue Armory. The production received mostly positive reviews, here's what critics had to say...
The New York Times said The Damned was 'astonishing...Despite Mr. van Hove's directorial relish for sweaty melodrama, which the cast delivers with gusto, flames burn cold in 'The Damned'. I mean cold enough to keep you shivering from beginning to end...'
New York Stage Review also praised Van Hove in saying, 'Van Hove has captured the frenzy of the Visconti film and made it all the more powerful as it unfolds live in our laps...'
Though the New York Daily News didn't have the same outlook as other critics, stating 'An intriguing but enervating multimedia drama...While it's easy to admire the ambition of 'The Damned', it's difficult to hail it a complete success.'
