A load of young, fresh potential that lit up the stage with energy and had us all giggling - what's not to like?
The story follows two young guys whose aspirations are to write a hit Broadway musical; but are unsure of what to write it about. So they decide to write their musical about two guys trying to write a musical. You following? From here any script or songs performed are included not only in their own right but also in the script of their new show. As they acquire the help of two female friends, they scribble everything down and include it in their new script. The result is a hilarious and witty narrative that not only comments on itself but on the whole process of what goes into putting a show together.
This show was delightfully surprising. The cast have an understanding of the nuances of comedy acting that's far beyond their years, whilst also managing to sing tight harmonies and hit all the right notes. While it may not have been pitch perfect throughout, this is easily forgiven for how funny they are. Their onstage chemistry clearly reflects their offstage friendship and this was lovely to watch. 17 year old Molly Cutter playing Susanwas in particular a pleasure to watch, with a hilarious and developed understanding of her role.
