Miss Saigon
Vintage Theatre: 12/5 – 2/1
Rob Riney and Regina Fernandez Steffen
Under
the astute direction of Rebecca Joseph “Miss Saigon” explodes across the stage
at Vintage Theatre with powerful performances!
The musical by Claude-Michel Schonberg,
Alain Boublil and Richard Maltby based upon Puccini’s opera, “Madame Butterfly”
tells the tragic love story of a Vietnamese woman and an American GI.
Regina Fernandez Steffen stuns with her
passionately acted and sung portrayal of Kim. Rob Riney delivers vocals that are superb as
her paramour Chris. Their love duets “ The Last Night of the World” and “Sun
and Moon” are sublime.
Arlene Rapal’s performance in the role of
the Engineer, normally portrayed by a male actor, is extraordinary. Her
delivery of the show stopping number “The American Dream” is electrifying!
Keegan Flaugh portrays Chris’s buddy, John
with great heart. This actor’s singing of “Bui Doi” at the top of Act Two, supported
by the male ensemble, is soul shattering.
Chachi Martin’s fiery portrayal of Thuy,
the fiancée Kim’s father had “arranged” for her as a child, is riveting.
Hao Liu adds immeasurably to the
performance of Stephanie Lynn Prugh’s choreography for the “The Morning of the
Dragon” with his utterly deft martial arts moves.
This production’s concentration on the intimacy of the story creates an evening
of theatre that exceeds expectations.
The tragic tale of a
doomed romance between a Vietnamese woman and an American G.I.
