Some memories are realities, the narrator of Illusion Theaters - TopicsExpress



          

Some memories are realities, the narrator of Illusion Theaters production of My Antonia tells the audience, and are better than anything that can ever happen to one again. That line -- like so many in Allison Moores stage adaptation -- comes directly from Willa Cathers 1918 novel. But its also a neat summary of the experience of this luminous and altogether lovely 90 minutes of theater: Its a lovingly structured piece, executed with equal measures of vigor and delicacy, elegantly balancing humor and tragedy, nostalgia and hard-eyed reality.
