put in their ideas and script changes, moved the 3 plus hrs production to a 2 hr production with an intermission.

So, I have my doubts - I hope it works out - Guirgis is one of my favorite playwrights and is one of America's
best. The NYTimes hailed him as a great playwright. I hope too this doesn't diminish his legacy.

Jack, he is a banker
and Jane, she is a clerk
