Betha...Agreed for the most part - good strong show. Bethany continues to grow with each role. Anne's character work was nice but I felt at times (and she is great at this) she listened TOO MUCH rather than keeping pace with dialogue. The show was blocked too far down at times and and the huge square on the set was well too huge.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00832569152879113896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15527783.post-50354165544557004112009-11-03T16:45:34.018-08:002009-11-03T16:45:34.018-08:00I thought this production was mostly very strong. ...I thought this production was mostly very strong. I disagree slightly with the above poster, I thought the blocking (in most cases) was very good. The problem I had was with Ann Whiteman's performance which I found erratic and at times inaudible. Kudos to Interplayers though. You're right Bobo when you say it's the best thing they've done in five years. Now to figure out why lightening struck in this case and try to recreate it every time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15527783.post-69486506340595988942009-10-31T11:37:46.272-07:002009-10-31T11:37:46.272-07:00Congrats to all involved!
