The Reprise production of Li'l Abner got a rave from Variety, from a critic I've never heard of. It flies in the face of what I've heard from two different people who were hoping they'd love it. But, if it's great, that's great - the show deserves the best. We'll see what the other critics have to say, although, as I've said MANY times, LA critics are the oddest bunch in the nation.
