...experience. The Caravan Theater has tapped this power with extraordinary effectiveness in the past, and they will no doubt do so in the future. But Focus On Me is an unfortunate lapse into the theater of polemical overkill. While it may be true that female is beautiful, the slogan is cold comfort in the long winter of our discontent...
