Here is some background on his supporting actress Yael Stone who cut off her waist length hair for the part.

I wonder if she is performing the role in Brooklyn as well, or if there is another actress doing the part here.

Might have been my typing. No space after Stone. Edited now.

cut and paste from your OP

With “Madman,” which features Yael Stone as the various women in Poprishchin’s life, your appreciation of this laughter-to-terror metamorphosis remains largely intellectual, despite the decidedly unintellectual pratfalls and preening of its star.

Ah yes, I missed that on the first reading. Thanks.
