She tries to start with a joke, but it warbles out: "The next time I need a new swimming suit I'm going to consult you."

They provide cohesion to the groups, silent commentary on the actions of Timon's associates and excellent comic relief. Lehrman and Hulsey bring together a good, if occasionally disparate, stage to make Timon of Athens a worthwhile visual experience...
