More letters of complaint and a spirited defense by Chicago Sun-Times critic Hedy Weiss’ negative reviews of a workshop project: “Reviewing of this showcase has been standard practice for a number of years; the proof is in the archives. In addition, I heard not a peep from the Stages staff after publication of my review of last year’s showcase. Perhaps that was because the ‘mixed to positive’ reviews were more acceptable to them. In fact, I would bet that a copy of my review was submitted as supporting evidence for many grants, etc., that the Musical Theatre Writers’ Workshop made to funding organizations this season. You simply cannot have it both ways.”
