Review # 1 was written on 2016-11-25 00:00:00 Chris Cordova 161. Salt Water Moon by David French This play is a flashback to Mary and Jacob's romance on a full moon summer night in 1926. Jacob, who had gone to off Toronto to work without a word, has come back to Coley's Point, Newfoundland, where Mary, who has lost both parents, has become engaged to the local school teacher, Jerome Mackenzie. Her younger sister, Dot, has been sent to an orphanage and Mary is hoping to get her back. The play is sweet and you know Jacob will get the girl in the end. However, I may be the only person who doesn't really want him to: her year dating the schoolteacher has given her a window on an entirely new life and in some places in the dialogue you feel she is almost too good for Jacob. David French is excellent with dialogue and knows exactly when and how much Newfoundland accent should be used.
