A couple of friends went to the first preview of THE ROOMMATE. They were surprised by how slight, old-fashioned and short the play was, and they were even more surprised to discover that it’s Farrow’s show, with LuPone good but rather recessive in support of Mia (Ronan Farrow’s voice is heard in a phone message to mother Mia).
