Director Sylvia Qomai is very good at using contrast techniques, not only in the difference of characters, but also in the great contrast of class life. For example, the famous ladies who sang every night and the three old sisters who lived by frogs. The beauty in the play actually reflects the United States. The fat Statue of Liberty, fat passers-by and hamburgers are all very symbolic.
