Yes!
And again, the last thing this show needs is ANOTHER female character we like singing her heart out about how in love she is with this guy we mostly see as a misguided jerk (I think he's more complex and relatable than that, but many don't seem to agree)... I don't think that wins any favors with the audience, especially a modern audience who will be hyper aware of the play trying to "gaslight" or force us to see Frank the way the women do just because they tell us they love him or used to and wish it could have worked. It is more helpful to the show to have us get some vulnerability and reflection from Frank about the consequences of his choices or character. And I agree about the impact of the Mary reprise. |
