Her diary may be a snakepit of self-doubt and criticism, but the barbs aimed at both herself and others have been softened with humorous understanding. Tracie Bennett is one of the most nimble-voiced narrators out there. She reminds one of Tracey Ullman as she glides from one comic persona into another. Her voices are both roguish and varied, while her mightily humorous timing never falters. There is Bridget's matronly mum, her crass and tightly wound boss, and the drunken Adonis for whom she longs.
Characters sneer sanctimoniously or screech haughtily.
Thank you Jackson for your review. As a result, the concert started a whole hour late, losing a number of listeners who gave up and left. The concert was terrific. The orchestra, a collection of virtuosos whose precision and intonation are almost inhumanly perfect, is fabulous and sounds wonderful. There is nothing they cannot do, everything just flows out with ease and inevitability.
