Can you count to two????

I know it's an odd question but at least it's headed to an important point. You see, you don't have to count beyond
the number two because it was the greatest play I have seen in a while, yes "TWO" was the name of the play at the
TNL Warehouse Theatre in Cow Head, NL last nite. Now don't get me wrong there have been great theatre from the day the doors were opened and everyone was welcome in, a moment as strangers, friends for life. I saw a few plays around, I choose to use the word play instead of theatre but really it's one and the same. Oh, ouch, I may have stepped on someone's foot. Last night I laughed hearty, felt a moment of fluid eye emission, and quickly recovered only to be brought to harder emotions, especially in this day and age where we frown on unnecessary physical contact toward the fairer sex. The scene moved everyone within.

There was sadness, heartbreak, you heart reaching out to the two lost souls trying so hard to realize their own
personal loss. The interaction with the audience pulled the quiet hidden humour from all who sat to watch and only added to thehysterical laughter which deepened the connection or bond to the two characters. Well Done! When the crowd stands and sends forth a hearty ovation I can only imagine wonderful and magical form called TNL. Once again it looks like the theatre will have a remarkable year of success.

what goes through the actor's heads. However I finish my piece a little differently, and yes I was one of the first to stand and bring them back for another bow shouting" BRAVO", "BRAVO", but here in this beautiful province of Newfoundland we have a man, who well deserves to be called "The Man Of A Thousand Songs", who I might add is doing fairly well according toreports, so "Bravo" to you Ron Hynes: BUT here it is we now have after last night's performance two actors who are in my book going to be called "Two" Actors of 1000 Personalities". To Jenn Furlong and Stuart Simpson my hat is off to you both I look forward to seeing you as your lives progress through this
