My overall impression
i’m a fan of kelsey goldberg. I like seeing her around and I was glad to go see her onstage. but insofar as lovely, some minor things can help this production and make our actress look like the star she’s meant to portray. this show could have (and can still be!) upped in a major way with the lights (it’s a purgatory of sorts, right? couldn’t it be cold or timeless looking? or hell, hot, just choose!)… I also think the idea of putting the door on a wobbly frame in the center of that adorable Ruby stage is a waste of a great space and traps our actress on the lip of the stage! It could have been so much more effective if our actress got thrown into the world and couldn’t find her way out of a curtain! (plus, for an actress i think that might be kismet and apropos, no? a velvet curtain?) Anyhoo, minor things could have made kelsey, who is talented, look much better! She deserves it, and her story does too.
