THIS PRODUCTION contains a rain effect, which impacts only the sides of the audience. Luckily, this production has not sold a single ticket on the sides of the auditorium, as this production can barely sell out the middle section.
THIS PRODUCTION contains strong language. But not in the literary sense. There are no memorable lines, witty jokes, or pithy observations whereby characters muse in a way that allows the playwright to make a larger point about the human experience.
THIS PRODUCTION contains a scene in which the actors will be smoking. It may appear that one of the actors, the young man playing Cousin Jude, has never actually smoked a cigarette in his life, even though his character explicitly says, "I've been smokin' my whole life."You'd think the actor might have done the bare minimum of preparation for the role-it's his first job, he's straight out of Fordham-but he apparently thought he could wing it. This is just par for the course in this production.
