Odets with one t. Sorry( previous post). Son Johnny was amazing according to his Dad and others. A nicely economized script transformed a historically unsuccessful play into a taut, well paced tragic tale of a famous Hollywood star w/ personal and professional problems. Classic noir genre' lines like " easy now, life is not a Russian novel."
Pre-performance we ate at D B Searles Bar and Restaurant in downtown St Cloud and had some pretty good chicken and shrimp and pasta. It is in a great old historic bldg on 5th ave. It appears to cater to college age kids, has a nice selection of beers and promotions and all that stuff, but has 3rd floor white table cloth dining. The burgers( handmade) and steaks are their strong point, I think.
Next door at Pioneer Place is a theater and a wine and Scotch bar. The Veranda. Lots of wines. Lots of single malts, if that is your cup of tea.
