In all, O'Sullivan has only entered 10 events this term, compared to the 15 he contested last season, another clear indication of his desire to be at his peak for the World Championship and avoid a repeat of his early exit to Ali Carter 12 months ago. That, in all probability, won't be enough to see him lift the trophy again but he does find himself drawn on the opposite half of the draw to the likes of Ronnie O'Sullivan and Judd Trump and we can expect the Welshman to go out on his sword, whatever stage in the tournament that might be. Part of the problem for Williams this year has been his lack of commitment to the practice table - something he freely admits - but he is reported to have knuckled down more recently and although we have't witnessed an immediate upturn in his fortunes, I thought there were enough shoots of promise in his recent Tour Championship quarter-final defeat to Judd Trump to suggest he might not be too far away from his best. Williams appears to have tailored his season around a repeat bid in Sheffield but victory at the World Open apart, the Welshman has failed to scale the same heights he reached in the 2017/2018 campaign and would appear to have it all to do in order to add to his world titles victories in 2000, 20.

(His presence here is another of Miller’s departures from strict truth.)įallon Smith and Rook, along with Bruce A. John Hale, who begins to regret his part in the proceedings and Matt DeCaro, the man you love to hate as Deputy Governor Danforth. And Edwards has elicited strong performances from a large cast, especially Asolo newcomer Goss as John Proctor, tormented by his guilt but trying to save his marriage, his life and his honor third-year FSU/Asolo Conservatory student Sara Linares as Mary Warren, torn between the truth and the machinations of Abigail and her cohort Gabriel Lawrence as The Rev.
Lee Savage’s set design, plain and simple as the Puritans would have lived, places us in the right restrictive atmosphere, with Tracy Dorman’s costuming and Jen Schriever’s lighting likewise confining us to the church, courtroom and home environs of a 17 th-century New England town.
