$9 underneath the theater - so a little pricey, but convenient.

Good show. My seat was up top but at intermission I moved closer as there were empyty seats scattered throughout the theatre. Yes, this show is dated, but it is still good to see. I found that Frances Conroy spoke so softly at times that I could not hear her from my original seat. I also thought the staging was odd at times, with the actors speaking while their backs were to the audience. I liked the enthusiasm of the young actor's performance.Written on Feb 27 2010

Great performances. The show is a little like "Long Days Journey" - light but this cast's immense talent made it a fine evening of theater.Written on Mar 04 2010

This is a story of a dysfunctional family. What makes it special is the performaners, especially Martin Sheen. The play is worthwhile seeing just to watch Martin Sheen put on a stellar performance.Written on Mar 05 2010

Description
Martin Sheen, Frances Conroy and Brian Geraghty to star in The Subject Was Roses. When it comes to family, there are three sides to every story.
A young man’s return from World War II becomes a catalyst for an emotional tug-of-war in which love is a prize and a weapon.. Martin Sheen returns to the play that earned him a Tony Award nomination in 1964; now as the patriarch of a family forced to confront its own privatized emotions and buried truths.
Frances Conroy (Six Feet Under) and Brian Geraghty (The Hurt Locker) complete the family triangle struggling to reconnect after years of emotional distance and rediscover the beauty in the simple gift of roses.
