A theatre company is producing a musical version of "An Affair to Remember." The stage manager has a crush on the leading man and heeds the advice of helmer, Prudence, who is also giving tips to Justus, a man preparing a proposal of marriage to actress, Hope, atop the Empire State Building. The cast seemed to work well together, each talent just as blissful as the other. Abby Bollenbacher beautifies the limited set with her performance as the ingénue, Hope Banks. We love to hate Lucius Prideman (Kelly Roberts), who is perfect as the self-admiring leading man. I felt that the end was rushed, which should be mended (at least) before it is submitted to an 11-minute musical festival.
Cast: Aisha Renee, Susan Brindley, Abby Bollenbacher, Christopher D. Carlisle, and Kelly Roberts.
