Steady Rain - Serious, Riveting, And Breath Taking

Broadway shows are one of Americas greatest past times. One of the best things about Broadway is the variety you get; there is something for everyone. Steady Rain played on Broadway and is one of the most laid back, casual shows to ever appear on stage. Audiences have adored Steady Rain but, surprisingly, critics did not -- not in the beginning anyway. Over time the production is receiving more attention and positive reinforcement; however, the production is only scheduled to appear until December, so time is limited to get in.

This Broadway production is fascinating due to the fact that it is a 2-man performance. There are no special effects, dancers, choreographers, or anything that would typically keep an audience's attention. Throughout the entire show the two men stay in one position while discussing their lives together. The production was directed in such a manner that audiences almost feel as if they are being read to. To many this may sound like a boring evening; however, it has proven to be an extremely emotional experience for those who have attended.

Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig are the two actors who portray life-long cop friends. They have experienced the best of times together, along with the worst of times. Through these times, the men in this story stayed by each other side. There is no set where this story takes place, as Steady Rain is a story of the men looking back on their lives together. There are no two better actors than Jackman and Craig, to grab the attention of their audience and immediately bring them into the story, making them feel as if they were there.

As we know, by the "storyline" this is not your standard Broadway show where audience members are swept away by flashy lights and astonishing choreography. Because of this the production is only scheduled to run for 12 weeks rather than the length a Broadway show usually runs. Hugh and Daniel performed their first appearance, of Steady Rain, in September, and was performed their last in December of 2009. Even though the scheduled time is over, the reviews pick up towards the end and the media is starting to give the production the air time it deserves. This emotional story is "awing" everyone that sees it, including critics. What could be better than watching two best friends go through their life -- the ups and downs -- and holding nothing back?

A few weeks into the show, something obnoxious yet funny happened. A member of the audience forgot to silence his phone which, of course, went off during the production. Hugh and Daniel dealt with this with grace as they casually told the man that there were no worries, they would simply continue their lines when he was done with his call. Even with this distraction the story was still emotional and drew the audience in.
