LOL! I think the list needs an emissary to check this production out and report back before our imaginations go completely wild. I picture now not just one schmuck gliding around, but lots of them, the sea-going guy, the Tin Angel guy, Willy, the priest, the Cactus Tree fellows, a stage full, all lost in melancholy Joni-love, dressed in black, and not watching where they're going... And then what happens? I guess the leached light and wilted grass would be the downside of the arc. I wonder if Joni ever identified with those nuns in the sense that they profess love and yet don't really feel it. (I'm hearing Amelia's line about maybe I've never really loved...) Debra Shea
