NEW YORK TIMES REVIEW OF Wonderful Town

Sis, Today The Village, Tomorrow The World
Ben Brantley

November 24, 2003: On your knees, citizens of Broadway. A superwoman walks among you. Having established herself as the first lady of musical tragedy -- with Tony-winning performances in Stephen Sondheim's ''Passion'' and a somber ''King and I'' -- Donna Murphy has now crossed to the sunny side of the street. She makes it very clear, thank you, that this, too, is unconditionally her turf.
