BWW Blog: Tyler Eglen of Actor's Theatre's GOOD PEOPLE - Choice vs. Luck
by Guest Blogger: Tyler Eglen - May 07, 2014
Listening to the show each night I hear different things, and what stuck out to me this past week was the play between choice and luck. We can all look at our position in life and try and determine what parts choice and luck played within it. It's as if you could take every event in your life and put in on a Venn diagram with only those two options of choice and luck. And I think if you did that for our characters in the play you would have some vastly different looking diagrams.
