SUDDENLY, you are not even sure if the play has started. With tv screens showing clips of movies from the 50’s, you suddenly realize that you are about to be taken on a multi-media ride. This ride includes the clever staging of a regular family, FBI agents, gangsters for hire, and guns, all thrown together around the potential assassination of the President whose train is supposed to pass by this small-town America.
The acting is excellent and what also sets apart this play adapted from the Frank Sinatra movie of the same name is the fabulous use of lighting and videos powerfully reminding us that past is present and issues of greed, gun control and family values are similar to core issues we are still grappling with today.
