REVIEW: A Delicate Balance, John Golden Theatre ✭✭✭✭

John Lithgow and Glenn Close in A Delicate Balance at the John Golden Theatre

This production sets its own agenda, all with the express blessing of the text, and the result is an energised, specific reading which focuses on loss, terror, friendship, rights and wrongs. Silence and pain. Fear and, eventually, hope. Together, Balaban and Higgins make this production the success it is. They upset and then realign the balance in the household they invade.
