Jeffrey would like to share one review by Andrew Bryan

"A Moment in Time" is how real and relatable the story actually is.

 

Throughout the play I remember feeling like I was actually there living

 

the story through the characters. I sort of was since I had the luxury of

 

front row seats, but everything from character execution, to the lighting,

 

and the music was so on point that it was nearly impossible to not be

 

engaged in the emotional journey.

 

 

When it comes to the acting, the first words that come to mind are pure

 

and authentic and I mean from every possible angle. It was so clear that

 

the actors weren't just reading lines they had remembered off a page,

 

instead it was clear that each of them had truly absorbed their characters

 

and ultimately brought them to life.It was because of this realistic

 

portrayal that we were able to become emotionally attached to their

 

situation, particularly the 2 brothers and the relationship they shard with

 

their mother. 

 

 

I felt that both wives and the 2 daughters played tremendous supporting

 

roles and really helped us to understand the harsh reality they all had

 

been living in, each with their own unique set of differences.

 

 

It seemed that A Moment In Time (pun intended) I was watching a

 

situation play out that was far too familiar. That's what good acting does

 

after all. While the story was based arond a sick mother who had done

 

everything she possibly could have for her sons, we see how our

 

lives ultimately take these sharp and unexpected turns that end up

 

separating us from who we once were. The relationship the brothers

 

were able to rediscover provided further proof that it is never too late and

 

luckily it's something their mother was ble to initiate and see prior to her

 

last goodbye.

 

 

Ultimately I was impressed with this show and would gladly see it again.

 

Except next time I'd like to bring my camera and conduct some

 

interviews with the actors & especially the Writer/Director. I say that

 

because I truly believe that the energy created between the group of

 

individuls is sure to lead to success.

 

 

Lastly, I noticed something quite unique that was played out in front of us

 

during the story. There was a scene that occurred on each side of the

 

stage where both families were alone with each other going over the

 

latest news they had discovered about the mother's final arrangements.

 

This sort of went back and forth and what I really enjoyed about this was

 

that not only did the lighting indicate where the scene had moved to, but

 

each actor would freeze in place until the scene returned to them.
