I don't think the actors were at fault at all; they were dealing with the material and the directions they were given.judy in kyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05810068743975026564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101571539062052986.post-31707782572116015292009-10-25T11:37:47.303-07:002009-10-25T11:37:47.303-07:00I have attended productions like this, Judy!

It is a shame that some have to reinvent a treatment of a beautiful work, only to leave behind the tone, the timbre, and the affective sensibilities of the piece.
