Description Woodrow's production invites so many uneasy questions for our time and all times: what PRICE do we pay, should we pay, for Justice? Mercy? Love? Financial security? How do we ever get beyond our individual, selfish, commerce, to see, let alone meet, the needs of another / others?...there is a sinister quality in this more matter offact, everyday, modern day dress version.
