Andy Webster gives a harsh theatrical review of the play "Heart of the City". While he does find the lighting to be good and helpful to the plays mood, he says that the material is old and not exciting leading to a boring experience, however the acting is good and makes the play pop where pop is needed considering the mundane material. The actors save the play by offering diversity and depth to their roles.
The lead is 30 words and would be better if he left out the address of the theater until later. The lead also focuses on what the play "is not" instead of what the play "is" which is something the textbook tells us not to do.
The article did not say a lot about what the play was about, making it less newsworthy because it does not encourage people to go see it, even though Webster says the acting is good.
