San Francisco Bay Area Theater Reviews

“RFK”

October 6, 2015 by Eddie Reynolds Leave a Comment

RFK
Jack Holmes
The Stage

  

David Arrow as RFK

For anyone younger than 45, the first question might be, “Who is RFK?” and a quick second might be, “And why should I spend two hours listening to a guy in heavy Bostonian accent who constantly swipes at his floppy hair talk about his life?”  Only a few mesmerizing minutes of David Arrow playing the solo lead in The Stage’s regional premiere of RFK by Jack Holmes will surely convince millennials through Baby Boomers that time will be well spent seeing Robert Francis Kennedy brought back to life before our eyes. 

My full review of this must-see play is posted in the San Jose/Silicon Valley regional section of Talkin’ Broadway.  Click to read more:
