Having worked in the corrections field, this was darn-near a perfect casting.
The convict was what you'd see 6 out of 10 times on early release.
The mother was a little jaded but alert--nothing got past her (most times).
The young girl did what young girls likely do--sneak a smoke or some weed.
The ending HAD to go that way, and it was an excellent finish.
**I agree with another reviewer that the shower scene was awkward**
I was pleasantly surprised by all aspects of this production--and I'd recommend it--highly.
