Letter To The Editor

Hats Off to the Cast, Director, and Crew

 

I have a number of students that have been urging me to attend the Mainstage production of “For the Love of Three Oranges” and give my opinion on the performance.  So here goes.  I very much enjoyed the production.  The acting was excellent with a number of very good individual performances.  The writing was clever at times bordering on edgy.  I liked the fact that it appeared to be featuring high school talent.  My personal bias is that I would rather see students than local adult talent.  I very much enjoyed the choreography especially the final dance moves.

 

My only reservations are that at over two hours, it was a bit long and dragged at times.   Secondly I could have done without some of the references to boozing, cigarettes, and being high.  I don’t think they really added anything to the play.  Overall, an evening very well spent.  My hats off to the cast, director, and crew.
