Can you really read and dance at the same time? You must be a superhero.
And now, an open letter to Julie Taymor, disguised as an open letter to one of her characters.
Dear Prudence,
You are a superfluous character. Your existence is irrelevant to the plot. Julie Taymor could've come up with a better way to work "Dear Prudence" into the story that wasn't so obnoxiously contrived and literal. We are all glad that you are a lesbian, but that does not justify your peripherality.
I hope you are finding Vermont quite lovely and enjoying Rita's particular abilities.
