BLUE WINDOW

by Craig Lucas

MY MEMORY. Artistic Director Josie Abady handed me a script and said, "Here's a play I think you'll like." Boy, did I ever! The seven lost and frightened souls of Blue Window totally captivated me, and I couldn't wait to get into rehearsal with them. I was the casting director for the Unicorn company, and I had selected a fine group of young actors to work with. These pictures bring back so many memories. What a special experience it was.

​

Craig Lucas' Blue Window is an interesting attempt to deal with some familiar themes. The production it is getting at the Berkshire Theatre Festival's Unicorn Stage is absolutely first-rate.

​

Roger Danforth has directed the play with an acute feel for the play's rhythms and tempos, and he has extracted a set of fine, razor-sharp performances from a very able, young cast that works extremely well together.

​

Winifred Walsh is particularly affecting in her lengthy monologue near the end of the play, but the lucidity and sensitivity of the performances that surround her are equally impressive. -- The Berkshire Eagle
