    Delightful and silly, with a wonderful sense of comic playfulness. A fast-paced piece about someone undestined for greatness. There's a sense of defying expectations both from the characters and from the play itself, which doesn't ever quite go the way you think it will!

    I love how you learn from Merlot right up front that this is not going to be one of those tales where she receives an encouraging visit from a higher up that she is going to great things, and yet, in this funny vision by Floyd-Priskorn the lesson that we learn, and one that we should hold in our heart every day that we have on this precious world, is that we can be someone who makes a difference with or without a halo above us or permission from any higher up that just happens to visit us.
