Better Late at South Park Theatre

Theater Reviews + Features | Pittsburgh | Pittsburgh City Paper: South Park Theatre mines its strengths and hits its demographic with the quirky Better Late, positing a romantic triangle of interesting people in what we once called “their golden years.” Co-written by Larry Gelbart with grittier playwright Craig Wright for a 2007 world premiere, Better Late (pun intended?) probes questions of old age and death. Gelbart, the comic genius best known for Broadway’s A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum (1962), TV’s M*A*S*H (1972-83) and Hollywood’s Tootsie (1982), died two years later.
