Can a comfortable, lime-worn love compele with the headiness of something new and emoîtonal? And should Donald follow bis head or bis beart? Tbese are questions he grapples witb, and a few surprises are thrown in to keep tbe audience on ils tcoes. Each viewer will have bis or her own opinion on wbat Donald sbould do and whetber he makes the rigbî decision in the end. Veteran actor Susan Cranford is quile believable as the pitiful Joanne Springer who seems bored with lite. And Pat McManus is skilled as the cbarmingly old fash- ioned Donald with a new spning v- bis step - despite a few fumbled lines. Sharon Stevens' perky portrayal of the "other woman" fils inîo the mix nicely, creating a good chemistry between her and the stodgier Donald. The only problem 1 bad with the play has nothrng tc, do witb tbe Players and everything to do witb the flippant way Norm Foster treals marriage. If theres no passion left, tbrow the relationship away - that seems to be Fosters attitude. Jupiter in July wasn'î a love story for me, it was an infatu- ation story - because love isn't sometbing born out of a two- week attraction, but out of lime, commitment and a decisioti to make il work. If everyone "followed tbeir bearî" aIl tbe lime, tbere'd be very few marriages left indeed. Regardless, Ibis is an amusing play performed well by Milton's own tbeatre group.
