Описание: Tonight's cast was a motley mixture of swings and FCs, the main roles going almost exclusively to swings and covers and the actors giving fresh and exciting performances. This was a "No Bridge" show, so during the play proper, the "profile" and "seesaw" were heavily used as improvisational parts. I would say that it worked out fine and certain acting and singing decisions overshadowed the reduced capabilities of the set. I have never seen Caboose being forgiven by Rusty! Big hugs between Rusty, Pearl and all coaches! And Joseph-Rusty and Farah-Pearl have SUCH CHEMISTRY on stage. Also, the fluidity and jester-like qualities Brandon Williams gives his Caboose! And to listen to Dan Walford's AC/DC again! Fantastic. As well as Robert Colvin holding the final "Iiiiiiiiroooooon" for a solid, let's say, twenty seconds? Yes, Greasebob! You're the champion!
