A New Misery Matt Joseph’s version of the Misery is certainly different from what one would expect. While Stephen King’s Misery gave the audience a feeling of suspense caused by silence, Joseph’s Misery definitely kept the audience on the edge of their seats as the characters in the play were more aggressive and show more emotions. When I first came to watch the play, I only expected to see an amateur play …showed first 75 words of 614 total…

…showed last 75 words of 614 total…the ax came down, and the room was filled with a loud “BANG!” I almost jumped out of my seat. Overall, the play exceeded my expectations, the actors were great (they even shook hands and pictures with the audience – too bad I didn’t have my camera), and the three hours came and passed with a blink of the eye. If I had the chance, I would definitely watch another play from the same crew.
