"Memory may not serve me totally, but I cannot recall a stronger, more wrenching version than the one I experienced this past weekend... And this IU production really works, from those pre-start moments when one views that genuinely evocative set by the returning design guru Steven Kemp, perfect for what happens. Mitchell Ost’s deft lighting added to the visual impact. Linda Pisano’s costuming brought a clear sense of period to the production."
