Annie Get Your Gun Review

What a great review from Mr. Scott Andrew!  A wonderful bonus to such a successful and exciting opening weekend.  He had some mighty fine words to spare fer the cast and crew of this here production.  A few highlights:

"Last weekend, Lyric Music Theater opened an outstanding community production of the show in South Portland. Over the years I've seen quite a few community productions of “Annie Get Your Gun,” and Lyric’s current offering is definitely the best." 

"Lyric has a fine cast of community actors, led by Cory Bucknam in the title role. She’s got a good voice, wonderfully articulate body language and an real empathy and enthusiasm for the part. She’s paired with David Allen Van Duyne as her love interest. Van Duyne sports a fine swagger – essential for the role – and the chemistry between him and the leading lady is palpable.

There are several fine supporting roles. One of the best is Janie Downey Maxwell as the deliciously disportive woman who unsuccessfully competes for Frank’s love. I also liked the secondary romantic pairing, Rebecca Washko and Brandon Pullen, and the four principal male character roles: Vince Knue as Buffalo Bill, Adam Noormand as his general manager, Jeff Newick as arch-rival showman Pawnee Bill and Louis Perrotta as Chief Sitting Bull." ~By Scott Andrew, The Forcaster: "Out & About: 'Annie Get Your Gun' is right on target"
