I guess that means the play was still in previews? I know Ms. Lavey was sitting further up than I was, and had a yellow writing pad in her hand. I saw Ms. Noonan in Passion Play. The character she portrays in DMC, seemed very similar - especially vocal intonation or, maybe that's just how Ms. Noonan talks? I'm glad it was a short play. The absurdities got to be a little much. All in all, I've seen better and I've seen worse. Boy! Falling can turn you into a dead girl offstage! Ann Margaret smashed her face in, remember? And some other actor, whose name escapes me actually died! That could be an entirely different play. Maybe horror genre or something. I'm glad you have the red lights now. Break a leg! But not literally. I came to Dead Man’s Cellphone, last Saturday afternoon. I guess that means the play was still in previews?
