Would highly recommend 33 Variations, now playing at LA's Ahmanson Theater in downtown. [Coincidentally, brother Peter Fonda and Cher were in the audience last night to support Jane Fonda reprising her Broadway role.] Playwright, Moises Kaufman, was drawn to the question of Beethoven's 33 variations like an archaeologist is drawn to artifacts left behind. The powerful play, nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Play, showed Jane Fonda at her absolute best. Fonda's character who is a distinguished musicologist travels to Bonn and is drawn into unraveling this obsession, including her own. Through March 6, 2011. http://www.centertheatergroup.org/
