Theater Review: “Bronx Bombers”
“Bronx Bombers,” currently playing at the Circle in the Square theater, brought out positive emotions in me that I did not know existed.
As with “not having to be Jewish to like Levy’s rye bread,” one does not have to be a New York Yankees fan to enjoy “Bronx Bombers.”
Peter Scolari as Yogi Berra is brilliant. His timing on the so called “yogisms,” which are generously sprinkled throughout the play, is impeccable.
His real life wife, Tracy Shayne, plays Yogi’s wife, Carmen. They are terrific together.
All the actors contribute and without giving anything away, only the Yankees, among sports teams, can produce the quality and quantity of player legends.
Those legends come to life in a heartwarming way in this very well staged production.
