...increasing hysteria and absurdity of the proceedings is reflected by an increasing breakdown of spaces and reality as the play progresses. Everything becomes more exaggerated, from the humorous to the shocking. The result is a second half that is much stronger than the first. The set (designed by J. Michael Griggs) literally comes apart, starting as a self-contained room and ending up with the side walls completely turned around and the stage open all the way to the miscellaneous props and lights in back. While it is occasionally distracting when a stagehand has to wheel in a spotlight from...
...adequate as the ex-lover Leonardo. His performance was compromised by garbled speech and a sometimes-incomprehensible accent.The performance of the Groom (Roberto Travieso ’08) was for the most part unconvincing. Ironically, he excelled at the most challenging part of the play: his final breakdown before he set out to murder Leonardo.Three actors with smaller roles deserve praise for their interpretations.

One source of the Corporation's problems can be found back in Walford: 9 million saw Jane tackle Ian's crazed captor - far shy of EastEnders' record episode in 1986, when over 30 million watched nothing more dramatic than the marital breakdown of a pub owner and his barmaid wife...
...junior tight end Jason Miller for a 19-yard completion. Sophomore Patrick Long put Harvard up, 10-0, with a a 23-yard field goal. Princeton’s offense woke up in the second quarter, running the option effectively and leveling the score at 10. But a defensive breakdown allowed a 59-yard pass play from Pizzotti to Miller that set up a 28-yard field goal by Long, giving the Crimson a 13-10 advantage going into halftime. Injuries plagued the Tigers’ comeback bid, as Foran was sidelined with a concussion midway through the second quarter...
