My overall impression
BoxWindowDoor is very interesting and very artistic. I saw the first act of this play last year at the Fringe. This is the second act and opens with the Chorus played by Susan Joseph, appearing like a dream version of a Greek Goddess in a silver gown and toga, reminding us of what happened before. Margaret, the main character then appears to wake up except she is in this space that represents a city street. As played by Evelyn Stettin, I felt everything that she went through. Her performance was fantastic. It was mysterious in a way. The projection of the street and the rain really helped create the right ambiance. The Chorus then appeared again to explain what we just saw, the way the chorus in classic Greek drama does. The set was simple yet very effective. The lighting and video projections helped strengthen the dream like feeling. Also, the music was a big part of the atmosphere. I was really impressed by how the director, Angela Grillo, brought everything together in such a creative way. I was moved, leaving the theater with a sense that I had just seen something special. I am so glad I saw this show!
