ARTS BEAT  Critics' CornerDanai Gurira's new play, "The Convert," now having its world premier at McCarter Theater, has opened to rave reviews. David Finkle of TheaterMania finds it enthralling, if a bit long. U.S. 1's Simon Saltzman goes further, calling it "stunning," "one of those rare plays in which time hardly matters." "An impressive new work by an impressive young playwright," writes Toby Zinman of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Donald Gilpin of Town Topics says it's "not to be missed." How did you like it?
