The Elephant Man
TheatreWorks' is a very stylish version of the Victorian melodramatic play with two inspired performances by Aldo Billingslea as John Merrick and Rebecca Dines as Mrs. Kendal.
Rebecca Dines excels as the breathless, intellectual and kindhearted actress Mrs. Kendal, called upon by Treves to provide womanly companionship for Merrick. There is obvious chemistry between the two upon their first meeting. Their scenes are the highlight of this two-hour with one intermission play. The scene which shows Merrick shyly asking to see Mrs. Kendal's body is touching.
Director Robert Kelley has been gifted with the mesmeric talents of
Aldo Billingslea and Rebecca Dines.
