Treat yourself to a spectacular show! Come see the devilish, delirious, hilarious comedy THe Bold, The Young and The Murdered!
One of my favorite play genres, the comedy murder mystery, shines at the Ritz!
If you like your whodunnits with a hefty dose of laughter, this is the show for you!
Every character hits perfect pitch - there are no weak spots in this melodramatic extravaganza! Rem Farr is brilliant and hysterical as the elderly thespian in love with soup. Eli Varnadore brings the right amount of pseudo-sexy swagger to his role of Sebastian Strong. Rhonda Robbins is excellent as the actress trying to make sense of it all. Rhonda has been in plays at the Ritz longer than I have! She was in the first show I saw at the Ritz, Cinderella in 1997 (something like that). Nikki Spivey is perfect as the older actress with memory problems. I have never worked with Chris Thigpen, who plays Morris the young lead with insecurity issues, before, but I am looking forward to one day acting with him - he is a first-rate talent. Speaking of first-rate talents, it was good to see Cole Hendry back onstage, in yet another strong performance as the show's creepy doctor. And Cole's wife, Megan Hendley, has a plum part as the show's unpaid intern - it's the largest part I've seen her, and she is exceptional.
Kayla Dixon and Brittany Boatright are bright spots as the play's director and crew. And I am proud of our graduated Flying Dragon contingent, Sami Jo Kuhbander, Hana Hitt and Kacie Jones - all tree just get better and better every time I see them.
Kudos also to the backstage people, the set design and the director. This is an excellent ending to an outstanding season of WACT productions!
