Review: 

You go to a play called Hank Williams: Lost Highway for the music of the legendary singer, and your favorites are all there, played live by a dynamite country band, in the production now at the Manhattan Ensemble Theater. It's all framed in a bio-entertainment that is pure bio-charm. It's a good dramatic play as well about the self-destructive life of Williams, with a fine cast, all first rate musicians, led by Jason Petty as the singer/songwriter in a recreation that is almost a reincarnation. Tertia Lynch as Audrey Williams is the prettiest, wriggliest bad singer on the stem. Director/co-writer (with Mark Harelik) Randal Myler has fashioned a totally enjoyable evening of the best in country.
