I caught "Sweet Charity" at the Saratoga Drama Group on Friday night. Well-acted, well-sung, REALLY well-danced and imaginatively staged. Geri Carlson Sauls dances up a storm as Charity... and she's lovely, funny and sweet besides. Lots of good songs.
Jon Wenger handles the sound board. If all sound guys were like Jon, I wouldn't have had to post the S.O.B. Manifesto on my web page. G*d and Dionysus bless him.
"Charity" runs at the Saratoga Civic Theater through October 11. Most tickets $18. Call 408-264-3110 or visit the web page at http://ww.sdg.to.
Also saw TheaterWorks' production of "Master Class", which closed this weekend. Charlotte Cornwell's performance as Callas is sterling, and the play has much to say about art, celebrity and singing.
