<http://www.timesunion.com/?controllerName=search&action=search&channel=entertainment&search=1&inlineLink=1&query=%22Joseph+Fava%22>//, 
a veteran of decades of community theater, has an acute eye for telling 
detail, and he's attuned to revealing lines and moments in Osborn's 
dialogue. He also controls the action and pacing well, as when one of 
the sisters snatches an important document from the pocket of another, 
and a chasing tizzy ensues. . . . . . . . . the stage picture is 
beautifully realized and an apt and evocative playground for the 
unfolding comedy. Steve Barnes - TIMES UNION//

/The Four Sisters (clockwise from left) Paula Ginder, Carol Charnaga, 
Rita Russell, and Joanne Westervelt/*

*  Morning's at Seven has been called Paul Osborn's love letter to just 
plain folks (specifically four sisters in a small Midwestern town), a 
heart-warming, funny, and emotionally satisfying play that will not only 
make you feel great about yourself, it will let you finally forgive 
every member of your family who has ever wronged you.

This perennially charming portrait of small town America fifty plus 
years ago was revived on Broadway in 1980 and in 2002 to critical 
acclaim. New York Daily News called it "An absolute charmer... Four 
sisters, Chekhov would have smiled. So will you, and laugh out loud, too."

/Playing the four sisters of the cast are Carol Charniga (as Cora 
Swanson), Paula Ginder (Aaronetta Gibbs), Rita Russell (Ida Bolton), and 
Joanne Westervelt (Esther Crampton ). The nine member cast also features 
Phil Sheehan (as Theodore Swanson), Richard Cross (Carl Bolton), Robert 
L. Hegeman (Homer Bolton) , Amy M. Lane (Myrtle Brown), and Bill Hickman 
(David Crampton)./
