Characters come off the printed page and exist for a brief moment in the three-dimensional world. No 3-0 glasses are required. Ev-erything is coming to you at once and is yours to keep should it bounce in your lap. Jt's easy to see how an audience member can become mesmerized and wish that they were on stage. I hope that your experience tonight is pure magic.
