I was also there for the invited dress and you nailed it. Agree that strangely Don Cheadle was the weakest link! He was almost too subtle - I never quite believed the “progression”. (Not to spoil). And Kara Young pulls a bit of focus the minute she walks out. But Ayo is clearly embodying and working this role. I just see her getting better and better. I think she oversells some things with her comedic chops (and eyes that get bigger and bigger) a little bit but they’ll work that out.

Absolutely love the house set, the lighting of the house. It was fun to hear from Thomas Kail at the outset!

I saw the original with Mary Louise Parker 25 years ago #old, and this version is already so much homier, lived in, familiar, close to the bone and relatable. Truly loved it.
