My overall impression
Ever walked through Manhattan after smoking a joint? Ever ridden on a train, in the winter with a Christmas tree? Those things are difficult but not as difficult as the choices these characters have to make. The show was well executed. Each actor committing fully to their characters. The relationships amoung the ensemble are all believable. The temptation for the actors would be to lean towards the heavy handed and it was refreshing to see that none of them did. Every actor played their moments truthfully which lead to a very believable experience. The actress playing Mrs. Vronski got to excercise her chops in a stirring monologue. Once the show was over it was difficult to see how the playwright felt about the theme presented, but maybe that was the point to get the audience member to think about their own personal views. Check it out and see what you think. Or at least, think about what you saw.
