“The Ginsberg Character, played by Isa Totah, is so right on in a thousand subtle shrugs, kvetches, flirtations, behind the scenes machinations and strokings-of-beard, that Totah is practically channelling the young poet who went on to fine tune the Beat Generation's public image from the cafes of Grant Street to world clique.”
