From D.J.R. Bruckner’s NY Times Review
NEBUCHADNEZZAR is on trial in ”The Sovereign State of Boogedy Boogedy” at the New Federal Theater; his judges are Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego and his lawyer is Danielle. But, while Lonnie Carter has cool revelations about justice to unveil, this courtroom is no place of order and decorum. The judges have all dabbled in petty crime; the angel who rescues the three men from the fiery furnace is a fireman of dubious morals; the king, possibly on the principle that the sins of sons will be visited on their fathers, is shackled with a charge he threw Danielle into the lions’ den and doomed by the handwriting on the wall that spelled the downfall of Belshazzar in the Bible, and Danielle is reduced to stunned horror by the fate of the false accusers who persuaded the king to fling her to the big cats.
