Marcus' coldly rational perception that the Confederacy was bound to lose the Civil War, and that there was money to be made from the better-off people around him who irrationally believe otherwise, was the foundation of the Hubbard fortune. Marcus is a self made man, born dirt poor in the Piney Woods, who toiled away at menial labor while he taught himself Greek philosophy and the basics of American sharp dealing. In 1880, the Hubbard family patriarch is Marcus Hubbard, played by Ed Peed. This was a very good idea: I enjoyed "Foxes", but "Another" is even more enjoyable, mainly because of the double perspective made possible by having the two-decades-later consequences of what is happening in 1880 fresh in one's memory. Ron Ritchell at Lyric West is building on the success of his last season's "The Little Foxes" with a production of Hellman's 1947 prequel to the Hubbard saga she wrote in 1939, "Another Part of the Forest", using some of the same actors he used in his "Forest", but with some part-shifting to accommodate the twenty year flash-forward.
