Celia is the shining star
Three big names perform a somewhat predictable set of scenarios. Most of the aidience were there to see Jessica and Jim, (and expounded unnecessary whooping at various points in a variable script). Jessica hammed it up and played to the audience and Jim was too Sheldonesque for my liking, but for me Celia stole the show with a performance of power and which strengthened the the strongest parts of the show towards the end. The simple mise en scene worked well but the director missed a trick by not employing a musical specialist to provide a more emotional collection providing a counterpoint for the key moments.
