Last night I went to the Hail Center Theater in Orem and I can honestly say that was the sweetest play I have been to. It had everything from romance to comedy. The setup at this theater was great. I sat two rows back on the east side of the stage. The stage was surrounded by the audience on three sides and the audience was a part of the play. There was lots of tap dancing and some other styles as well. My favorite seen was called the Voice Coach Office. This is a scene was great because it started with the lead female role taking voice lessons because sound in a movie was just invented. That was great because this character can’t talk very well so she was having a hard time. Then the scene turns over to the male side. He is doing wonderfully and is kind of bored when his best friend walks in. they start making fun of the vocal coach and start to dance with him. By the end of the scene the voice coach has no idea what is going on and the two male leading roles, Don and Cosmos, are laughing their way off stage. Cosmos was by far my favorite actor of the night. He was the funny guy of the show. He knew it too but did a great job. I did get a little wet too being only two rows back from the stage. I give this play a ten. It made you laugh and was just flat out entertaining. There was a great climax but I won’t mess it up for those who are going to see it. I would definitely recommend going and seeing Singing in the Rain. I am not sure how much it cost because a friend took me. Maybe that’s why I gave it a ten but I am sure it is a reasonable price and worth every penny.
Sounds great! I know what you mean. I live in CA and LA has a Hale Center Theater that is owned by the same family, and I love going there. I have seen Singing in the Rain there, and it was terrific.
ReplyDeleteLucky, you got in for free? Want to hook me up with some tickets? I want to see it too. I watched this movie on the t.v. and I thought it was a good film.
ReplyDeleteI love the movie, it's nice that they are able to pull it off during that play. The way you explain the play is very convincing.
ReplyDeletei think i am seeing this next week, so im glad that it was such a great experience for you! i dont think it is very expensive but that's awesome you got in for free!
ReplyDeleteIt was an amazing show. Cosmo was my favorite character as well. The actor that played him was really good at being funny without being over the top.
