Audiences attending the Shelton Theater summer production of were greeted with a program note from director Richard Ciccarone explaining the artistic reasoning behind his decision to “transform” Guirgis’ play.
"For me, a play is a living document that should transform from production to production."
What Ciccarone seems to be conveniently forgetting is that such a "transformation" potentially happens in any new production, with new actors, new designs, new direction, etc. The text does not need to be rewritten/altered for that to happen.
