It's true that the books deal with mostly strong women many of whom are breaking barriers for women in their society. But the society itself is horribly patriarchal. That doesn't bother me so much as the fact that we have canon evidence that it didn't start out that way. It doesn't really speak well for humanity in that universe.
Tyler seems like he might be too young for the role of Robert, though I guess that depends on the relative ages of the rest of the cast...
He's 26. He's not really old enough to play anyone else though I suppose he could be in the chorus. Though it seems a long way to travel for chorus work when he spent the winter playing leads in regional productions. Whatever though. I'm actually getting excited about the idea of this trip. I really have been wanting to go back to Maine for a while.
