| | Absolutely Fascinating - Boy - Here Lies Jenny - New York Magazine Theater Review |
 | | In their current show, Absolutely Fascinating, savvily directed by Simon Green, there is cunning choreography; a mischievous pianist, Russell Churney, who sometimes waspishly joins in the singing and dancing; and a trio of gamboling sheep in a number sardonically extolling the peaceful torpor of New Zealand over the fearful turmoil elsewhere. |
 | | But mostly there are the three inspired women: irrepressibly versatile Dillie Keane, a sort of naughtier Angela Lansbury, who wrote most of the music and some of the lyrics; statuesque, subduedly sexy Adèle Anderson, co-lyricist and deadpan poison-dart thrower; and the relative newcomer, curly-blonde Liza Pulman, sassy specialist in soprano pinpricks. |
 | | Meanwhile, Maureen, an overqualified and disgruntled lit teacher at a community college, is fascinated by the writing talent of a 17-year-old-student, the eponymous Boy (no name given). |
