    proudly and exuded an imposing and powerful dignity like a king. It was like love at first sight to me. Every day I would be playing around the tree.

    actor was easily heard and spoke with vocal energy. Before seeing the show, I had only read a few scenes from the play and only vaguely knew the plot. It was nice to see this story unfold from actors that worked in the moment and believed their imaginary circumstances. The actors did the best they could with the script provided for them.

    First, Thompson includes a series of imaginary cases to appeal her opinion on abortion. Throughout her article, as these ‘imaginary cases’ made her point easier to see, I couldn’t help but think... these are imaginary, and a bit irrelevant because most did not tie in with the abortion argument. Thompson compares a person being hooked up to a famous unconscious violinist, and a mother carrying a child to prove one of her points.
