The actors of this play really embraced their roles and therefore made the characters very believable. They did this by truly depicting the emotions the audience would feel if faced with the central issue thus, causing the audience to be more understanding when thinking from each character’s point of view. The performers were most successful when they were debating about the issue because it made the audience truly feel for each character, thus leading to more doubt. The scene most note worthy was the scene with Sister Aloysisus and Mrs. Muller. In this scene, Sister Aloysisus discloses her suspicions to Mrs. Muller hoping to have her help in the removal of Father Flynn. However, Mrs. Muller responds completely differently and emotionally defends her son by stating that whatever the issue was, it was only till June. This was due to the boy’s sorrowful past history and the rare occurrence of happiness the boy felt toward Father Flynn. This causes the audience to understand from a mother’s perspective and wants the boy to be happy but also seek justice. This scene was so emotional and done so well that the audience feels for Mrs. Muller even if the issue is the possibility of child molestation. The actor’s chemistry was also very good and thus made the play great as well. Each actor seemed well rehearsed and listened to each other’s lines as a result, responding his or her lines
