Your (3-part installment) review is AMAZI...MARTA!!<br /><br />Your (3-part installment) review is AMAZING! So, so insightful...I'm right with you.<br /><br />Yes, it would be amazing to see Jacob's merits (and FUN!! to play). Alas, that wish might be as foolhardy as wishing that we could see MacDuff being silly with his child...it'd be fun, but would it really help the playwright?<br /><br />Your thoughts on the cast are Matt Ahttp://www.matthewarchambault.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3037381095504508998.post-3214056024937411442010-05-18T23:08:12.082-04:002010-05-18T23:08:12.082-04:00I think American Jacob is more of a bad ass than b...I think American Jacob is more of a bad ass than biblical Jacob.

Actually she was a family matriarch. Her children, as in this play, were as involved throughout her final months as they were glued to her throughout her lifetime. She even has an attic that felt exactly like Jason Paradine's version, right down to the hats andUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00199517019335850083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3037381095504508998.post-78078849190892354642010-05-16T01:27:48.831-04:002010-05-16T01:27:48.831-04:00(Part Two/ Spoiler Alert)
