Great Moment:
When Lisa Morgan
saved Israel in
Golda's Balcony:
"...Lisa Morgan
was a monster as
Golda Meir in
the one-woman
show, Golda's
Balcony, and
though out her
buildup to the
war, one's
hackles rose
helplessly as
Morgan's voice
gained decibels.
Whatever if
feels like to
lead a country
that may soon be
pushed into the
sea by the
combined might
of three
nations, Morgan
communicated it,
and she kept the
audience's feet
pressed to the
floor like a
driver
depressing the
brake pedal to
late to avoid a
collision. When
a late night
phone call with
Henry Kissinger
finally secured
U.S. aid to
Israel, it was
like a fever
breaking.
Throughout the
theatre, people
found they could
breathe again,
never having
noticed they'd
stopped."

"But her fierce,
smart connection
to the dramatic
crisis, the
extensive
historical
material and the
engrossing
storytelling of
the play? That's
the real deal.
...in the end it
is Morgan - the
actress for whom
Adler wisely
waited - who
makes this
exploration of
Meir's life so
completely
absorbing."
- The Miami
Herald
"Morgan IS
Golda... the
only South
Florida actress
who could
possibly play
Israel's Prime
Minister."

"Morgan's
normal English
accent is
nowhere to be
found as she
adopts a stern
Hebrew
inflection...
...puts her in
line for her
third
consecutive
Carbonell
(Award) next
year."
- Dan Hudak -
Coral Gables
Gazette
"As Israel's
Prime Minister
Morgan was alone
onstage for
ninety minutes
and was riveting
for every single
second."
