Carol,
I hope all is well. Thinking of you. Just
for your information, I watched "A Few
Good Men" on TV this week. I had never
seen it before. Even with Tom Cruise, Jack
Nicholson, and Demi Moore starring in the
movie, the production and acting at Curtain
Call surely was every bit as good, and I obviously
love live theatre a lot more. You should be
very proud. Alan
Lobel
Just wanted to write to tell you I thought
Ben Katagiri's performance in "It's a
Wonderful Life" was absolutely fantastic.
I hope to see him in future plays at Curtain
Call. Steven

What a fun show! Those 2 geezers were great.
I don't know who I loved more "Clark
or Lewis", "Lewis or Clark".
Both provided a night full of laughs with
their performances in Sunshine Boys. from

performance
I (the pregnant woman :) was there Saturday
with family members for my mothers birthday.
We had dinner at the Century House before
hand. I just wanted to say we all had a really
nice time and think that you have a great
thing going there. It's nice you brought some
culture to Latham and Im glad it's right up
the street from me. As soon as I can, I will
be attending another dinner/play
combo. Thank you again for the great experience.
My mother was happy as well with her birthday
plans. from
Melissa of Latham - about "The Sunshine
Boys" performance
I thoroughly enjoyed this production of DA...a
ghostly, comic Irish play filled with love,
laugher, regret, guilt. The cast did a wonderful
job portraying the emotional and bittersweet
relationships that exist within families.
The set reminded me of homes I visited in
Doolin and on the Aran Island of Inishere.
Thanks for bringing this play to our area.
It is both funny and timeless, a play for
everyone. from
Joan and Len - about the "DA" performance
What an interesting play! So many dead and
alive people all at once, and double versions
of some of them! It caused us to keep our
wits about us to know what really was happening
and when. Being dead for the whole time must
have been extremely odd. I can remember ages
ago when you were practicing your dying as
Billy in Carousel and we all giggled, but
tried to control it.. We have known Maureen's
parents, the McGrath's, for about fifteen
years. They are absolutely the sweetest people
in the world. Max and Maureen's dad, Moe,
went up to BOCES awhile ago, in suits and
ties, to Maureen's class to play "interviewer"
so the kids could get an idea of what a real
job interview is like. The students said it
was valuable practice. "Da" was
a good play. Carol Max is a real success story,.
We saw the company at the Holiday Inn in Saratoga
when they were looking for a home theater.
Your acting was great! The part I especially
liked was when you were patting and playing
with the frisky dog! I could really see him!
I liked the emotional range, the deferential
body language, and the motions with the hat,
too. Congrats, as always! from
Linda and Max - about the "DA" performance
Dear Carol,
We just loved the performance on Wednesday.
You were outstanding! It was a powerful piece,
moving, funny, and perfectly realistic. Our
guest loved it as well. Once again, a winner.
Thank you for the call. from
Carol G - about the "Rabbit Hole"
performance
Curtain Call Theatre:
My wife, Suzanne, and I saw this show Thursday
night, and wanted to tell you how terrific
it was. The theme was thought-provoking, and
the acting was just wonderful. Not a misstep
in the casting, nor in the presentation. We
were so glad we saw it. You have, once again,
picked something perfect to present to us
all.
Thank you for your consistent high quality
theater. We look forward to many more enlightening
and enjoyable evenings. from
Lonnie & Suzanne C. - about the "Rabbit
Hole" performance Bravo!!!
Amazing production of Rabbit Hole. We laughed,
we cried, we were moved. The casting was perfect
and the stage unique and effective. The best
show yet at Curtain Call. Congratulations
to all of you. Thanks for a wonderful night
of quality theater! from
Joan P.
Dear Carol & Company,
As season subscribers, and loyal supporters
of Curtain Call Theatre since its inception,
Steve and I want to commend all of you and
thank you for a riveting evening of theatre.
We feel that Rabbit Hole is the best production
in Curtain Call history!
The performance was stellar! Right from the
start, Becca, Howie, Izzy, Jason and Nat captured
our attention, emotions and empathy. We were
totally involved with this "family".
We witnessed their pain and struggle to exist,
but we never felt that we were watching actors
playing roles. Carol, Steve, Joanna, Lecco
and Joanne were so professional and convincing
that they completely enveloped me. Their lives
were so meaningful that they took my breath
away, gave me chills, stopped my heart and
brought me to tears.
I experienced a marathon of emotions, all
because of the quality of their execution.
I couldn't even bring myself to applaud between
scenes because it would have seemed an invasion
of the privacy of their "home" and
a lack of respect for their feelings and what
they were going through.
We look forward to seeing more of these extremely
talented individuals in future Curtain Call
productions of this caliber. APPLAUSE, APPLAUSE!
With
profound appreciation and heartfelt thanks, Sherrie Phyllis
and I really enjoyed the show on Sat. Great
performance by all the
actors as usual. It was a treat seeing you
up on stage Carol.
