The Fly's gang provide frequent comic relief; Jeremy Geidt as Manny and John Bottoms as the sinister Governor especially stand out.

Long's work is about man's eternal search for order in the chaos around us. He feels impelled to wander in nature, building his own rational and controlled systems from the material around him. The pieces are man-made, yet not artificial. Long is sincerely interested in "the invisibility of art." The phrase is no scrap of artistic rhetoric; it is, rather, the heart of Long's mind.
