...complex wit. Lastly, Prince Charming, performed by Lazlo Berdo, penetrated the space with his deep chaussees and powerful tour jetes. Despite his technical expertise, his movements felt princely stiff, counterbalancing Cinderella's fairy-tale flatness.

The angels at the drive in and behind the bar speak louder than the apostrophes which end many of the stories, addressing the reader. Johnson's depictions of the druggie's singular experiences shine with a metallic grace; the visions, the "rushing on a run," resist the very messiness of the world in which they occur.
