'Tis a Pity She's A Blog! 10

This play has slowly but surely began to enter the repertory of contemporary theatre.

Some excerpts from a 2005 performance

"Even back in the 17th century playwright John Ford must have had his eye on the box-office when he titled his famous 1633 incest-coated pot-boiler of old Parma 'Tis Pity She's A Whore" 

"... Despite this, the passionate, shocking and doomed love affair between a brother and sister manages to be riveting from start to finish." 

"...Other intriguing performances are given by Helmar Augustus Cooper as Donado, a citizen of Parma (repeating the role he played in the Public Theater production in 1992), Mauricio Tafu Salgado as the sadistic cuckolded nobleman Soranzo, and Mel Cobb as the mercenary unethical Cardinal and also doubling as Bergetto's servant Poggio."

This review even mentions a previous staging at a fairly large theatre (The Public Theatre, one of the largest theatres in new york)
