 LET NOTHING YOU DISMAY

FIREHOUSE THEATRE COMPANY at 
THE JOHN HAND THEATER ON LOWRY:  NOV 21 – DEC 21

Written by Topher Payne and directed by Paul Jaquith, Let Nothing You Dismay is a holiday free-for-all that’s a farce everyone can enjoy.  The cast includes local favorites, Verl Hite, Mary Campbell, Veronica Straight-Lingo and Johnathan Underwood and features Chrys Duran, Andrew Catterall, Jenny Eaves and Ben Butler.  These eight actors perform the roles of the twenty-two characters penned by playwright Payne.  The transformations these actors make from one character to the other will leave you breathless.

Standing out in this amazing cast are the gut-busting characterizations provided by Veronica Straight-Lingo, Mary Campbell and Verl Hite.  No spoilers! You deserve to discover them for yourselves! 

  The playwright has decided to insert an intermission and as everyone knows an intermission causes some of the steam from a farcical First Act to evaporate requiring the cast to get the sparks flying again afterwards.  That said, these fine actors get us back on track and up to speed in relatively short order.

The Costumes are thanks to Rachel Herring-Luna. Lighting is by Emily Maddox, and sound design by Madison Kuebler.

The set design is a community effort by Director Paul Jaquith, Jeff Jesmer and Megan Davis. 

One must give a shout out to Paul Jaquith for his outstanding work from the director’s chair.  This is one of the funniest productions to have been seen by this reviewer this year! Bravo!

It’s Family with all its quirks and idiosyncrasies, and the love thereof, that is at the heart of this play.   A Great escape from the horrors of the evening news and a tonic after all the chaos at the mall, it’s perfect for the holiday season.

NOT TO BE MISSED!
