Patron review of HASHTAG MAYHEM!

(An unsolicited review – really – from a friend of mine. I mean, a critic’s a critic, right?)

 

I enjoyed it more than I expected.

Nice staging for “Pass the Salt, Please”.  Greg and Brooke did an excellent job!! Brooke's facials are fabulous.

 Jesus Pushed a Grocery Cart”.  Mike and Randall have settled into a great rhythm with their staging and dialogue. Randall is spot on.

 “Choking the Choad in Bel Air”.  Interesting and entertaining. Bryan's placement was great and added to the overall feel of the piece. It took my breath away to see it performed and one of the bravest things I've seen onstage.

 “Conor Francis Comes Home to Ballycullen”.  Well-cast and a nice rhythm to the piece. It had it all – humor, emotion, anger and violence all wrapped up in a nice Irish stew. The actors succeeded in painting the picture of what that moment must be like – from all sides.

 Twisted Nice Mirage”.  Kyle had a challenging task and he delivered a stellar performance. The chemistry between he and Zoe was obvious and they both performed as if seasoned beyond their years. Zoe is a natural onstage and I thought she was well cast as 'Amy'. Staging of the play was spot on. Great writing! Great direction!

“Billy Balfoor Wants An Apology”.   Matt attacked his character head-on, doing a  phenomenal job portraying a ‘grown-up' Billy – initially with the devil-may-care, tough exterior and then transitioning to a vulnerable young man who just wants what he believes he deserves. Mack's 'Laird' was surprisingly likable. The intensity to which Mack gave his performance won me over and won my respect. Both actors did right by the script.

 

Nice. Thanks, patron!
