    Talk-Back at Moby Dick Performance

    Fountain Hills Community Theater

    November 3, 2007

    Add Review/Comment

    Fountain Hills Community Theater is proud to invite audiences to participate in a 'Talk-Back' session with author/director Peter J. Hill and Charles Sohn, star of Moby Dick. The classic novel, Moby Dick, comes to life on stage in the form of a single actor portraying the unforgettable characters from Herman Melville's timeless saga. Written in 1851, Moby Dick recounts the adventures of its central character, Ishmael, and his voyage on the whaling ship Pequod, commanded by Captain Ahab. Believing he has signed on to an average ship, Ishmael learns that Ahab intends to use the Pequod and her crew, not to hunt whales for market trade, but rather to hunt down and wreck revenge upon one specific whale; the great white whale, Moby Dick.

        Darling summertime fun! FHCT manages to stage this huge musical in their small space with gusto. Acting is great particulary Mr. Applegate (who steals the show) and young Joe.

        This was and outstanding show for Fountain Hills! The cast was tremendously talented, especially the young woman cast in the role of Peggy Sawyer. She certainly has the triple threat and has a very bright future. I was hoping to see her in more shows at this theater. The director did a wonderful job as well as playing the part of Julian Marsh. Set design, lighting, choreography and costume design was right on the money. Absolutely fabulous, and congratulations. Collapse

        The show is good, but it just isn't as impressive as what they opened their season with. The male leads in this are wonderful. I find the female leads to be difficult to listen to at times. But the sets are great, and that helicopter was impressive. Sure missed the cadillac! Overall it was good just not outstanding. Collapse

        I very much enjoyed seeing this show. The ensemble is most certainly NOT something to ignore (they were GREAT!!). The actors playing Chris and John were incredibly superb and their talent should not go unnoticed! I was blown away by The Engineer's and Thuy's performances; very impressive! Kim was good as well, but she is obviously young (her voice is a little underdeveloped) and it is unfortunate that her inexperience shows through her performance. Ellen is certainly experienced and has good characterization, but I found her difficult to listen to; her voice sounded unsupported and she dropped pitch sometimes. All in all, DON'T MISS THIS PRODUCTION! Observe the wonderful (sometimes "scandalous") costumes! Look for the clever way in which the stage is used and watch out for the helicopter! Get your tickets now!! Collapse

        42nd st is an old-fashioned flimsy plot musical that truly requires a large stage to capture all the grandeur. A valiant effort by the community troupe, but it falls short - largely because Kathi Osbourne who plays Dororthy is sleepwalking through the role - no enthusiasm whatsoever. There are some highlight perfromances such as Mallory who plays Peggy Sauders, but others fall short. On the whole another good try, but uneven effort from FHCT Collapse

        42ND STREET at Fountain Hills was absolutely fabulous, outstanding,& marvelous! The young woman playing Peggy Sawyer is by far a most talented actress, singer, dancer. The cast was also just fabulous. This is a show not to be missed by anyone. Every detail is so well done & every tap step is brilliantly placed. I would not miss this one and will certainly see it over a few times. I highly recommend this show to everyone! Collapse
