Fearful of aging and that it will only result in any future casting as an older woman, she is haunted by the memory of a young fan who was tragically killed and who she identifies with as herself when younger. Questioning the depressing script, Myrtle’s personal dilemma at her current situation comes to a fore while she struggles in the face of reality, both in character and offstage, attempting to try and recapture some meaning of hope in her life. |
