Review of "Woody's Order!" at none too fragile
by Bob Abelman 17 Aug '19

17 Aug '19

‘Woody’s Order!’ made to order for none too fragile Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal “Every woman has a one-woman show in her,” says Oprah Winfrey in a recent issue of her mothership magazine, O. The one in Ann Talman is a 90-minute autobiographical monologue that reveals the life-sucking exertion and life-affirming devotion that defined the unconditional loving of and caring for Woody – her nonverbal, quadriplegic cerebral palsied older brother – for most of their lives. “Woody’s Order!” is an especially personal journey to be taken on, packed with heart-wrenching self-disclosures that tell of brave but broken parents, unrealized aspirations, and “rescue dreams” where a sleeping Ann’s subconscious would create haunting life-or-death scenarios that required her to either save Woody or herself. She would always, in reality and in slumber, opt for Woody. And yet, despite the courage associated with exposing her soul to strangers and the theatrical pleasures we derive from the pain of her experiences, this engaging but pre-fabricated production is rarely enthralling.
