So when my ultra-cool 29-year-old cousin started raving about her regular bus trips from New York City to Philadelphia, where her fianc is in grad school, I figured maybe it was time to review my old bias...

Amongst many impressive performances, Joelle Kross as Virginia, Poe’s 13-year old bride and first cousin, is particularly adept at imbuing her character with youth and innocence. Likewise, Shawna O’Brien plays Poe’s mother, who dies while her son is still an infant. O’Brien subsequently stalks the stage as a ghost, becoming the authority figure of the play...
