The character caroms from love to loathing and back again. This is a visceral work and deeply moving. Ms. Montgomery also manages to find a lot of humor, albeit it dark, in these characters and their situations. Ms. Montgomery’s fluid and elegant body movements add another dimension to this work by providing a gracefully visual background which help to both anchor and propel the story. The only criticism, and it’s a very small one, that it was sometimes hard to know if she was playing two characters , or just one moving back and forth in time. But, ultimately, that really didn’t matter very much.
