Theatre Review: Lucky Guy


Playbill: Lucky Guy
Pre-Theatre Meal: Marseille
Accompanied by: Nana & Donna 

Having started a new job recently, I haven't been going out as much since I've been trying to learn my new industry. But considering my new position is in newspapers, I felt more than justified taking some time to see Tom Hanks in Lucky Guy, the story of Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Mike McAlary. 

It's very odd to see Tom Hanks playing someone who isn't a 100% likable nice-guy, but he did a good job with it, so I recovered quickly. It was OK, but I definitely think this would be more interesting to people who remember the real life events of his surrounding scandal in the 80s.
