"If I was to pick one reason to see this show again myself, it would be to revisit the emotional intensity Blakeman brought to Matthew’s character. Perhaps it is because his role calls for the highest highs and lowest lows as he suffers grief and also draws laughs from the crowd, but nevertheless, I was nothing short of enchanted with his performance. His outbursts left me tense, and his tender moments made me want to just stand up and give him a hug. No matter what he did, my eye was on him, and I was dying to see what would set him off next."
