Sebastian Stan in "Picnic"

The Roundabout Theatre has revived William Inge's classic play Picnic.

The original Broadway production starred a young Paul Newman as "Hal" - a young man who comes to town looking for a new start.  Sebastian Stan ("Bucky" from the Chris Evans 'Captain America' movie) and his high-definition abs take the role of "Hal" in this new production.

Unfortunately, most reviews have not been strong except in regard to the front and center prominence of Sebastian's abs.

The New York Times practically insisted that Sebastian's abs deserve "star billing."

I won't judge the performances until I get to see them, but until then I can share with you "the abs that launched a thousand ships."
