A Knockout Cast

“…this new revival, featuring a knockout cast of performers and directed with flair by Tracey Flye, makes for a satisfying evening of entertainment…

Flye’s production, featuring colourful costumes by Sue LePage and an elegant, seaside set by Lorenzo Savoini, zips along with ease, while Stephanie Graham’s choreography — particularly for the ensemble numbers — fully activates the Avon Theatre’s large stage.

[Shakura] Dickson, only in her second season with the Festival, makes a strong impression as the seemingly innocent Christine. Her belt is thrilling, if occasionally overamplified by Ranil Sonnadara’s sound designs. Derek Kwan is also a standout as Lawrence’s sidekick, along with Sara-Jeanne Hosie as Muriel Eubanks, a woman more than willing to pull out her chequebook for Lawrence.”
