The ending was surprising, but on the other hand should not have been. It seemed that the more educated Mary became, the more ignorant and intolerant she was. I truly felt sorry for the Southern couple's son in the end because he not only lost his family and mate, but Mary as well, and her ignorant comments really hurt him beyond measure which is ironic since he was her champion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-567028415357836731.post-48864122008164507932011-02-22T22:08:29.586-06:002011-02-22T22:08:29.586-06:00I wholeheartedly agree with "Anonymous"!...I wholeheartedly agree with "Anonymous"!

I thought the actors were excellent and the writing was extremely effective. I don't think it was supposed to be a "feel good" play, as our history is not a "feel good" history (with respect to social issues). I wonder why the fact that a person, who is supposed to be educated, could still be so ignorant (which to me represents the theme of the play) completely <br />escaped the consciousness of the Sun Times reviewer!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
