The play wasn't dramatic enough. Or it was so dramatic that I was immune. (Ryan writes about music, so he might not mention it, but I'm pretty sure he wasn't impressed, either.)
Jewish kid gets sick; Catholic nanny baptizes him to ensure his trip to Heaven; Pope claims child for God and secrets him away to the Vatican. Much wailing and letter writing from the parents. Talktalktalk. Even the beautiful scene where Mom denies God gets re-hashed several times. And then the Nazis come.
So when Matt stopped by, I fell off the couch and faked my own death.
I think he would agree that it was appropriately moving.

Yeah, I'm afraid the play was a snooze.
But the pope costume was the awesome. I wonder where I might be able to find one?
