I read a review either in Toronto Star or Next that said the actor should have had more lighting changes. I beg to differ - I thought the lighting did a lot to create mood and different spaces. It's amazing how much Peter Thompson was able to create by great song writing, an amazing voice, some bare bones set/props and good lighting. I've never read the book because it seemed like too much of a slog to get through, but there's so much in the story and I'm glad I got to see this clever actor bring it to life.
