There's forgiveness for everyone. That's what Jesus said,” utters Fern. “Baby girl,” Chalky informs her, “Jesus was wrong.” This episode wasn't the most faced paced, informative episode.

This episode revolved around two things: forgiveness and the mistreatment of women (mistreatment being neglect, abuse or crimes against women).

based upon the 1976 documentary of the same name, by Albert and David Maysles, the offbeat and somewhat perplexing musical Grey Gardens acts as a pseudo-documentary of the rise and fall of the reclusive mother/daughter duo of 'Big' Edith Bouvier Beale and 'Little' Edith Bouvier Beale. Aunt and cousin, respectively, of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, the story follows their lives from high society to abject poverty, living in a decomposing mansion overrun with flea-infested cats.

You know when you go on vacation and come across that amazing restaurant that serves one of the most surprising dishes you've ever had that you pine over for years and then you find a restaurant back home that makes the same recipe? And maybe they don't have all the best ingredients or maybe the chef isn't quite as good but it just doesn't live up to the original? Well, unfortunately that's the equivalent of what I witnessed last night at "Grey Gardens" currently at ACT. It's still the same amazing show by Doug Wright, Scott Frankel, and Michael Korie and definitely had some outstanding moments but the whole just didn't quite compare to when I saw it on Broadway with the incredible Christine Ebersole.

'Rise above it!' was a phrase used throughout Rose Kennedy's long life (1890-1995) to get her past the personal turmoil and tragedies that beset her and her large Irish clan. One question overheard by many in the audience on the opening night at Theatre 40 of Kathrine Bates' The Color of Rose was 'How could she stay with such an awful man for so many years?' Joe Kennedy had a reputation as a womanizer; he was also a manipulator of money and corporations, and an alcoholic to boot. But he was Irish Catholic. Rose Fitzgerald was also Irish Catholic, and Irish Catholic people in those days remained loyal to one another and by and large did not divorce. Divorce was rare. Rose's life was hardly a bed of roses, but she contented herself with her children's achievements and never said an unkind word in public about Joe's wrongdoings. That's the way it was, and in Bates' new play, Rose Kennedy receives a pure but totally human rendering as the icon of motherhood. She does regret never having attended Wellesley College, and of course, her rejection of daughter Kathleen who rebelled and married a Protestant, living her life in England until her untimely death in a plane crash. If only they had reconciled: it's not difficult to comprehend how a mother would feel about that or about poor daughter Rosemary, who had undergone a labotomy at the insistence of father Joe, who took medical advice as the best recourse. Again, it's Rose defending Joe's decisions and standing behind him 100%. It was her job as a dutiful wife, and she remained stalwart, as was expected of her.
