The play, written by Lanford Wilson, is lengthy and often re petitious, but it does get across its message — no one’s life is com pletely their own in a small town. The plot centers around the events leading up to a killing, the Review killing and why it happened. All of the Aggie Players gave excellent performances. No weak characters existed among the group. Especially outstanding were the characters of Mary Windrod, played by Miki Bone, and of Skel- ly Manor, played by Jay Meador. Windrod and Manor both por trayed elderly women, and they developed their characters well. The audience practically cringed with arthritic pangs everytime they moved. Everyone from the town gos sips to the town tease was repre sented in this play, and it was a blunt statement about character roles in our society. The story itself jumped from one situation to the next, and this became confusing at times. Final ly, at the end, it becomes clear how all the situations tie together. The two-act play will continue through Nov. 21. The perform ance begins at 8 p.m. people involved and the subse quent cover up. The audience is kept in sus pense until the very end as to who was actually killed, who did the Eva Jackson (played by Trace!
