Darlings, Start Your Day With The Distilled Essence Of Mary- Louise Parker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                 Of course, you must not forget the coffee, girls, but if you want to see the distilled essence of Mary-Louise Parker, then you have to look at her work as Harper Pitt in "Angels In America."

                                  When 'Angels' hit Broadway, back in 1993, Marcia Gay Harden originated Harper, and no one, back then, did the role like Marcia.  And Marcia went on to prove herself, time and again.

                                     If there is anyone even worthy of Marcia's theatrical magic, it is Mary-Louise Parker.  I love her spooky entrance, and how she burrows inward in her portrayal.  It is what I try to do, when I work, darlings, which is why I think if any of you out there want to learn something about acting, Mary-Louise Parker's work is an excellent place to start.

                                       Here is Mary-Louise accepting the Emmy, getting kissed by MERYL STREEP--oh, my God!!!!!!!!!!!!!--and musing on Harper.

                                         So, watch her very carefully--and learn a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
