You've created an electric atmosphere between these two, with a little help on the sidelines from Cililla! Such nervous energy - a feast for any actor worth his or her salt. You've set up a couple of teasers. Will Jennie pass her exam and graduate, and will Cornie be able to stand the pressure of performing in front of such a large group? We shall see!

Thank you so much, Tony. Your six stars make me warm inside. I'm having some logistic problems, mostly in the setting and staging of the next scene, but when I get it worked out, I hope its an emotional, but satisfying ending to the play. I feel so privileged to have had you along this road!

What a twist! I kept thinking I missed a scene in between--it seems anticlimactic that you start out the scene with Jennie already back--then reveal the reason. To me, her father's death is of lesser significance than is her stunning reappearance. Well constructed, touching interaction!

Yes, it could have been more sequential, I admit, but that would have required an expository scene, probably without Cornelius to dilute the gory dramatic details with his cuteness. So I launched on ahead and also set the scene for play's end. Thanks, Liz for your splendid comments.
