ONLY 3 ISSUES TIL THE GIANT MARDI GRAS EDITION

Ambush Mag z 504.522.8049 [email protected]

trodding the boards ...from main-20 Seymore, Wallace’s closest aide and Cratchit stand-in, was such a two-dimensional wimp that it was difficult to work up much empathy for him or his shrewish wife. (Seems to me it would’ve made more sense to show how Blacks were unjustly suffering under Wallace’s racist poli- cies.) And must we keep bringing Elvis back to life, this time as Marley’s ghost? Please, let’s give the King a rest. Vaught’s too often awkward direction did not help matters any nor did, Martin aside, the mostly amateurish acting; not even a capable actor like Paul Atreides could bring to life speech after wordy speech. Frustrated after a nearly 90 minute first act that failed to live up to its potential, I gave myself a holiday present and, rare for me, took leave of this Christmas Carol, forsaking the opportunity to see God and Satan themselves play out the battle for Wallace’s soul. Call me a Grinch, but even a Grinch can take only so much.
