7/7/7 Finale:
Seven is Heaven
John Lahr, review of a production of Tom Stoppard’s “Jumpers”–The play is about a philosophy professor, George, and his wife, Dotty,
who “exudes a sumptuous
sexuality…. She has a pert round head, high
cheekbones, and a deep voice, which, like her acting, is full of
playfulness and longing. George is lost in thought; Dotty is just lost.
‘Heaven, how can I believe in Heaven?’ she sings at the finale. ‘Just a
lying rhyme for seven!’ She is promise and heartbreak in one.”
“With a name like Frigo…”
