Lettice and Lovage
Pittsburgh City Paper: Peter Shaffer's plays tend to be massive, dense and demanding, so it takes a certain amount of chutzpah for a small company to tackle one. The knighted playwright of Equus and Amadeus also produced a rare comic gem. His 1987 Lettice and Lovage, written for Maggie Smith (a great Dame herself), is as highly charged as his testosterone-drenched classics, but comfortably within the reach of Terra Nova Theatre Group's capabilities.
