| Yes, I agree that the actors playing the family really seemed like they were a family. I imagine that part of that comes from their all being from Wilma's Hothouse troupe, so they know each other well and have acted together many times before. I sometimes have mixed feelings about the local companies using the same actors over and over again (the Arden is the worst for this IMO), but the Hothouse Company is a bit different, and I think it works well. This was my first Wilma show since the return of live performances, but it sounds like I should be thankful I missed the Chekhov plays! |
