Thank you Eric. I'm getting a lot of blowback, which is weird because Alfred Uhry is one of the nation's experts on the case. I mean, his grandmother (upon whom Miss Daisy was based) was good friends with Lucille Frank.
I do hope this version of "Parade" runs longer than the first which starred the late Canadian Brent Carver, a wonderful singer/actor and Tony award winner for "Kiss of the Spider Woman".
This was succinctly and brilliantly put, David. I've already forwarded it to two friends who were asking me how much I knew about the realities of the case v. the musical.
I recently read an extensive article that said that the Frank’s marriage was extremely troubled, not just “wasted time” but actively unpleasant. It is also important to note the political courage of Governor Stanton who sacrificed his career and safety in service to what was right and moral
