He has too many characters in his plays and they all have confusing names like Dolmio, Antipasti and J'accuse. One can never follow the plot as to who is supposed to have done what and to whom. And there's always a choir singing and a fat man shouting Nessun Dorma. And people dancing on tiptoe, (why can't they hire taller dancers?) And at the end someone dies either by being stabbed or poisoned. And as he dies, instead of the cast calling for an ambulance they continue singing for at least ten minutes. And every one in the audience applauds. <br /><br />What's all that about?<br /><br />I prefer Tom and Jerry. Much simpler.<br /><br />God bless.Victor S E Moubarakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04280638667651857296noreply@blogger.com
