Twelfth Night
My wife and I saw the Georgia Shakespeare Festival's production of Twelfth Night tonight.  I had read the play but had never seen a production.  As usual, the company put on a great show.  With one exception (also as usual), Crystal Dickinson, who played Olivia, was horrible in her role - completely unable to carry the part in a believable way.  At this point I have seen her perform Shakespeare (four times - Macbeth, R&J, Comedy of Errors and Twelfth Night), I have seen her perform Williams and I have seen her perform Chekhov.  And in each case, she has performed exactly the same role.  I have never seen a stage actor with less range.
