Public Theater's 'Superior Donuts' made with good ingredients

Post Gazette: "Arthur Przybyszewski has a lot in common with Joe Btfsplk. Aside from the hard-to-pronounce last names, there's a perpetual dark cloud over Arthur's head, just as it hangs over the Al Capp cartoon character, dragging the worn-out Chicagoan down like a 50-pound sack of flour in his Superior Donuts shop in a 'transitional' neighborhood called Uptown. My Windy City source makes it sound a bit like Lawrenceville -- pockets of gentrification among the old housing stock while a stagnant business district shows signs of renewal.
