Denzel's Fences

Caught this play a couple weeks ago, pre-Tony Awards, and was blown away with the all around excellence, from the very talented and small cast, to the storyline, to the Cort Theatre and more. I am hardly a Broadway aficianado, but the lure of Washington drew me in.

Did not know the storyline in advance, even though "Fences" is a revival. Did not know how the play would end until it finished. Knew Washington would be superb and he was. Was amazed by Viola Davis as well. How great that they each won Tony Awards.

Stephen McKinley Davidson truly captured the essence of his part, (longtime friend and co-worker with Troy, Washington's character.) Just loved Chris Chalk as Cory.

Totally enjoyable evening, way exceeded my expectations. One PS... Cort Theatre only has minimal bathrooms for the ladies, which was um, interesting... at intermission.
