'The King And I' Review Roundup: What Can The New Broadway Production Offer?

Critics are raving over director Bartlett Sher's version of the 1950s musical production "The King and I," particularly over the dazzling performance of actress Kelli O'Hara and her onstage chemistry with Japanese film actor Ken Watanabe, who makes his Broadway debut in Sher's latest play.

"The King and I" stars O'Hara, who has been described as "angelic," "exquisite," and "glorious" by reviewers, as the strong-willed, widow Mrs. Anna Leonowens who arrives in Siam in the 1860s (now Bangkok) to teach the many children of the Siamese king, played by Watanabe, in the ways of the Western world, where Leonowens and her young son, Louis, come from.
