Still, it is a promising choice, although in my opinion Ms. Whoriskey's projects at Intiman have been somewhat hit-and-miss.

And there is the question regarding her lack of experience running a professional company. This has both pluses and minuses, but she will need to make best use of every day of the next year and a-half to "learn the ropes" as it were before Mr. Sher's scheduled departure.

And of course, like Mr. Sher before her, there will also be the question of whether she she will devote more time in her new position to strengthening the organization and by extension the local theatrical environment, or whether she will simply leverage this into more lucrative out-of-town work, particularly as this appointment comes hot on the heels of her recent Broadway success with "Ruined". One thing that would help tremendously in this regard would be to see her show some willingness to expose herself to more of what the local theatrical scene has to offer than did her predecessor.

Time will tell, of course, but for now I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.

So enjoy the next eight years of anxiously trying to be as accomplished as Kate Whoriskey.

On the other hand, this makes me feel even more lame that I'm 30 and not doing anything that impressive (says the typical young narcissist).
