Playwright Castigates Critics For Reviewing While Drunk
Timberlake Wertenbaker, whose new play, "The Line," got mixed reviews, "believes that the actors were not given a fair crack of the whip because many of the critics had spent the day being liberally wined and dined at the Evening Standard theatre awards - a four-hour affair ... that involved a champagne reception followed by lunch and as much wine as they wanted to drink."
