To all your "was this actor playing X and Y supposed to be playing different characters?" I'm pretty sure the answer is usually yes. I loved all the multiple part-playing in this play, though I see how it could have been confusing. I think there was some continuity in the play, and it wasn't confusing to me - they seemed to do a good job of introducing each new character as they entered the story.
I don't know how much of the play was real, or how much was made up. I didn't see the play presenting itself as a documentary - I'm sorry if you went into it expecting that. I thought it was a fictional play based on true events.
To your last question, the point of the play was whatever you walked away from it thinking about. Does every play have to have a cleanly-put 'point'? |
