My overall impression

I saw the production of White Hot two weeks ago and I still get the chills every time I think about it. That’s what the what most effective theatrical productions do—they stay with you. Director Caitlin Hart and her cast of four succeed in ripping this tale of emotional unfulfillment wide open to the point where I found myself shifting in my seat from the pain of witnessing Lil (Karina Wolfe) dealing with the torment from her sister,Sis (Michal Sinnott) and the condesending torture from her husband, Bri (Christopher Illing). Instead of facing her excruciating reality she retreats into a world of knitting woollen bunny hats which triggered an eerie comparison to Amanda from “The Glass Menagerie”.
