| I enjoyed it (watched it earlier today)--it's a more substantial play than the synopsis makes it sound like, although there's a bit of deus ex machina at the end. Rashad is excellent and Alicia Stith is a tremendous find (although the combination of iffy sound and accent work made some of her lines a bit tough to decipher). It's also only 80 minutes long, which is my favorite length of play. Seth, looking forward to The Baltimore Waltz |

| I enjoyed it. It was fun watching Rashad playing a faded diva trying to hold onto her past glory, including her past body. Lots of amusing theatre jokes. Not sure if its been produced anywhere. Considering that Cleage has a connection to Alliance, as does Rashad, I was wondering if the part had been written for her. (Debbie Allen was fine as the sister, even if it was a bit of stunt casting.) Agree that Alicia Stith was delightful. Wasn't a pure Zoom reading -- there were more single camera shots than Brady Bunch. Still a reading, but since the play doesn't seem to have any significant action, that wasn't a problem. | |

| It was produced at Alliance theater in Atlanta. Nmi | |

| I enjoyed it too, and agree with Seth that it is more substantial (eventually) than the synopsis makes it sound. Occasional iffy sound not a deal-breaker for me, though I would have appreciated CC. |
