| Actress | | Teacher | | Author | CRITICS RAVE ABOUT E. KATHERINE KERR! IN THEATER THE NEW YORK TIMES - Frank Rich Mr. Durang wrote LAUGHING WILD for E. Katherine Kerr and one can see why. In a chic and mesmerizing performance, this actress delivers her most hostile lines with a savage, taunting bark that might make Elaine Stritch seem like Pollyanna. Miss Kerr also enjoys riding Mr. Durang's lightning-fast transitions in tone to create the Sister Maryesque aura of danger exuded by a crazy woman who retains her intelligence and wit. Her descents into tearfully "sad longing" are convincing.
