...Stone are not the heart of the stage crew. Co-director Emily Gardiner, playing three different completely different roles, quickly finds her way to the forefront of every scene. Gardiner apparently has no difficulty switching between completely different characters.

By her own testimony she "lost touch" with Hill. "If you look at how she's remembering the date, I think it's as plain as day that the call came prior to September 1981," Brock told TIME. For her part, Hoerchner insists that she had not completed her move to California until nearly the end of 1981, and that she and Hill stayed in contact even beyond that date. "I did not lose touch...
