I questioned the appropriateness of the Audrey image I found and posted to the right. I thought it shows the exploitative potential that is a key aspect to the play but I did not want to preume (without David's approval) to go there. So I asked and he affirmed it is totally appropriate. He explained, "That was part of my discussion with Colleen of taking it from 1989 to the present - it would have to accomodate these kind of 'media frenzy' cases, in addition to the 'face-of-Jesus-in-the-toast-on-E-Bay' kind of reporting. Also, the current day of cell phones, blackberrys, ipods, etc - would result in even more pilgrims to the shrine sooner, I believe. Colleen, appropriately, chose to keep it in 1989, otherwise it would be a VERY different play."
