...play's other three characters--Chick Boyle,Doc Porter and Barnette Lloyd--provide enoughbalance to allow the audience to step away fromthe sisters' tragedies, and enough personal pathosto keep the plotline smooth. Marisa Chandler '99was perfect as self-absorbed, superficial Chick.Chandler walked tall and wore the kind of smirkycondescension on her overly made-up face thatChick's character emanated. Doc Porter came acrossas a strong-hearted, salt-of-the-earth fellow withTom Price's '02 expert handling, and MichaelDavidson '00 put just enough eccentricovereagerness into attorney Barnette Lloyd'scharacter.

"Big Bill" Rockefeller, crack shot and con artist, claimed to be a medical doctor and, in the gullible towns of upstate New York and farther west, promised to cure any cancer for $25. Eventually, "Doc" Rockefeller (who made a habit of impregnating the servant girl at home) became a bigamist and started a separate family as "Doctor Levingston"--the name that appears on his tombstone.
