A rave from the usually ornery Charles Isherwood for Writers’ Theatre’s A Minister’s Wife, a musical retelling of Shaw’s Candida, remounted at Lincoln Center.

Kudos to creator/director Michael Halberstam (Writers’ Theatre’s Artistic Director), bookwriter Austin Pendleton (of the Steppenwolf ensemble) and Kate Fry, whose Candida succeeds her brilliant turn as Rosalind in As You Like It at Chicago Shakespeare in the fall.
