...other way. And in fact, a good part of the cast kept doing things I wouldn't have suspected they'd be up to. Actors with no apparent sense of timing turned out to be marching to a distant crucial drum. Some sooty cripple who would have been booed down at a PTA benefit stuck up her face and said her little pice at, peek-a-boo, just the moment a touch of farce...
