ACTING
Reviews CurtainUp.com - "The third inhabitant of Sissy's villa is her secretary, Frances Black called Blackie, whom Sissy taunts for her Vassar airs and her formal way of referring to her late husband. To Sissy's "The dead are dead and the living are living," Blackie retorts, "Not so, I'm not dead but not living!" As Blackie, Lisa Pelikan, looking like a young Deborah Kerr, gives the play a sense of balance, playing the audience's advocate with a yearning delicacy. (Milk Train) is getting the best performance it's likely to have at the Fountain Theatre under the direction of Simon Levy, whose intuitive understanding of the playwright has earned him exceptional privileges from the vigilant Williams estate." Los Angeles Times - "Talented cast! The The Fountain's Theater's new production lunges into this problematic play with energy and enthusiasm. The cast is deliciously game."
L.A. Weekly - "SUPERB! Director Simon Levy and a terrific cast ... do a
magnificent job of bringing this black comedy to life."
