| Agreed. Mary was bitter and frustrated in the original production, but like you, I felt for her. Now, apparently, the point is that Frank has completely destroyed Mary's life, and she is a horror-show. And Gussie is also behaving in a way that goes beyond jealousy into something almost psychopathic. Almost the entire scene at NYTW is heightened melodrama, and it takes the production a few scenes to fully recover from it. But it does. |
