PERFORMER OF THE WEEK-
Week ending Friday, June 1st
First off- I want to give an
honorable mention for performance to Allison for her fabulous portrayal
of someone scared for one she loves (of course, Jamal). Have you ever seen
anyone cry like Allison can cry? If I didn't know better, I would think
she just had a death in her family! It's remarkable! Allison is a welcome
new addition to the "Port Charles" family.
However, in dedicating our weekly
newsletter to the upcoming 4th anniversary of "Port Charles" (I can't believe
it has been 4 years), I think my Performer of the Week has to go to Eve.
Eve has remained a constant since
the beginning of "Port Charles." With all the cast changes (Jake,Matt,Grace,
and..how can we forget-a few Joe's and Karen's), Eve has stayed. She has
grown from a character nearly afraid of her own shadow inside (yet very
rough around the edges to those looking in) to the most likeable character
on the show. She has weathered a few romances, i.e. Scott, Ian, Kevin,
and even (some may speculate) Chris. She has become a character you would
love to have for a friend, and convincing in every respect.
Her recent tragedy of finally
finding the love and soulmate of her life, and then losing him to another
has made her stronger, but more vulnerable. She has faced her problems
without feeling she needed to rely on Ian, and she has resisted the temptation
to tell Ian about their baby she is carrying, even though to do so would
most likely secure her future with Ian.
Eve has so much respect for Ian
and bears such deep guilt about the attack which left Arianna needing an
organ transplant, that she refuses to allow her baby to complicate any
of their lives, except hers, which she is most grateful for. She is planning
on embarking on a new life in a small town, in order to give her baby and
herself a fresh start and a purpose in life.
Those of us who have watched
"Port Charles" from day 1 remember how edgy and irritable Eve was. My how
the tide has changed!!!
For her power to remain, and
her power to help us remain devoted "Port Charles" watchers, Performer
of the Week goes to EVE!
