Others recall a sweeter side. Lulu Washington sells discount candy out of her house, just across from Yummy's. "He just wanted love," she says. For that, he could be disarmingly kind. "He'd say thank you, excuse me, pardon me." He loved animals and basketball and had a way with bicycles. He once even merged two bikes into a single, working tandem. Those were the good times.

This is indeed a valid criticism, and I, as director, made a conscious decision in casting Cohen, precisely because I believed she best fit the Lula of my vision of the play I wanted to put on.
