I'm lucky to work at one of the best theater's in New England called the
Berkshire Theatre Festival. This season promises to be an exciting one with some
excellent performances scheduled and also to welcome back some previous actors
that have graced the stage. Randy Harrison, who appeared in Equus and in Amadus
will return to the stage this July in One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest by Dale
Wasserman and based on the novel by Ken Kesy. The play will run from July 10th
through July 28th and is directed by another wonderful talent-Eric Hill. Also in
the cast is Jonathan Epstein who has appeared in other wonderful productions at
BTF. Some might recall that he worked with Randy Harrison in Amadeus, a
masterful play that also happened to be directed by Eric Hill. Anyone who saw
that play knows how amazing it was so no doubt Cuckoo will be just as
impressive. Tickets are on sale now.

Character Analyses
Billy Bibbit
Because of the virginity he retains until he is more than 30 years old, Bibbit is perhaps the most repressed member of the group. His mother employs Oedipal tactics to
Bibbit behaves in an adolescent fashion at the beginning of the novel, giggling into his hand at prurient remarks and writing down his observations concerning members of the group in Ratched’s book. His ineffectuality is underscored by the scars on his wrists from an unsuccessful suicide attempt made when his mother forced him to break off an engagement with a woman she felt was socially beneath her son.
Bibbit eventually comes to idolize McMurphy, who is only four years his senior. McMurphy arranges for Bibbit to lose his virginity to Candy Starr, initiating the chain of events that causes Bibbit’s suicide and McMurphy’s lobotomy and subsequent murder. While still susceptible to Ratched’s manipulations, Bibbit nevertheless finds the strength to succeed in killing himself in defiance of her authority and as penance for betraying McMurphy. It is telling that Bibbit succeeds by cutting his own throat when he was previously unable to succeed in the more simple task of cutting his wrists.
The character is described as "a stammering, suicidal young man with a
fixation on his mother. Billy is tentative, inhibited, virginal, gentle, and
sweet. Long curls fall over his forehead to accentuate his childlike quality.
When threatened, he cringes and cowers to make himself smaller, hugging
himself into a ball. He attaches himself to McMurphy as a devoted follower."
Although Billy Bibbet longs to be like the heroic McMurphy, he is not strong
enough to stand up to Nurse Ratched on his own. Billy entwines his arms and
legs when Nurse Ratched questions him, virtually tying himself into knots for
her. A shine comes into Nurse Ratched’s eyes as she makes him suffer by
reminding him of his weakness and his previous suicide attempts. Billy is so
timid and fearful that he stutters his own name when he first meets McMurphy.
However, McMurphy’s confidence and strength immediately charm and fascinate
Billy, who becomes a devoted disciple. McMurphy tries to get Billy to realize
that he should be out in the world, driving a convertible and having fun with
girls. Even though Billy is a voluntary patient who can leave the misery of the
ward at any time, he tells McMurphy that he is not ready, because he believes
he is not strong enough to face the world. McMurphy encourages Billy’s
natural longing for girls as a healthy appetite for life. By the time of McMurphy’
s farewell party, Billy is sufficiently self-assured to embrace Candy in a
romantic dance. When Billy confesses to McMurphy his attraction to Candy, he is
confessing a desire to be the healthy, normal young man McMurphy has
encouraged him to be.
The next morning, after Nurse Ratched finds him in bed with Candy, Billy
speaks for the first time without stuttering. The men applaud not only for his
confidence and manhood but also for his effrontery of Nurse Ratched’s control.
Using her voice and the threat of his mother to shame Billy back to
subservience, Nurse Ratched forces him to cower at her feet, begging for mercy.
Rather than continue living under her repressive rule, Billy chooses suicide,
relinquishing life, while simultaneously making an independent decision. Billy
acts as the catalyst for the final battle between McMurphy and Nurse Ratched,
the forces of good and evil in the film.
