“
I'm in awe of Gethsemane Herron-Coward's storytelling skill.
"The Falling Man," a one-act drama, is epic in how it combines objectivity, visuals, subjectivity, verse, and direct address/monologue to create a portrait of a man and his decision, and the aftermath of that decision in his family's lives.
And as each storytelling method is used, the audience understands that there are complexities to people, to decisions that we'll never fully understand.
"The Falling Man" richly deserves its varied production history to be expanded. ”
