LAND OF CLEVE REVIEW: 'Picasso at the Lapin Agile' is a Stage Work of Art at Blank Canvas Theatre

LAND OF CLEVE REVIEW: <http://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2017/06/cleve-review-picasso-at-lapin-…> 'Picasso at the Lapin Agile' <http://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2017/06/cleve-review-picasso-at-lapin-…> is a Stage Work of Art <http://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2017/06/cleve-review-picasso-at-lapin-…> <http://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2017/06/cleve-review-picasso-at-lapin-…> at Blank Canvas Theatre <http://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2017/06/cleve-review-picasso-at-lapin-…> *REVIEWED BY VIVIAN LUTHER* *Under the direction of Jonathan Kronenberger, the production is intelligent, humorous, touching, and at times wonderfully chimerical. In addition, the director has cast the play with an impeccable ensemble of actors. He sets them in motion so perfectly that it's like you are watching a “moving” piece of art.Kronenberger keeps the pace of the intermissionless show moving flawlessly, leaving you with the feeling that you just went on your favorite amusement park ride and you want to get back in line and “go again!”* *Scenic, lighting and sound designer Patrick Ciamacco creates an environment for the piece that is so inviting, it feels like there is no delineation between the audience and the actors. There is a great deal of wine pouring that goes on during the action, and the wide variety of different shaped and colored bottles – a small but very noteworthy act of “prop” brilliance -- really adds to the overall authenticity of the barroom setting.Costumer Luke Scattergood meticulously outfits each character, down to the barmaid's nifty hose and a pair of cool blue shoes. Each character's look is consistent with turn-of-the-century fashions, which is definitely an accomplishment in this day and age. Kudos to Mr. Scattergood. As for the cast members, they blend together like paint on a canvas (if Picasso was writing this review) or like the numbers in one of Einstein's formulas – each providing balance and support for one another. * *The seamless ensemble (in order of appearance, to appease the playwright) features John Busser as the steady, endearing barkeeper Freddy; Rich Stimac as the sympathetic, wonderfully gregarious Gaston; Carla Petroski as the simmering, sultry barmaid Germaine; Robert Kowalewski as the quirky, ethereal, magical Albert Einstein; Becca Ciamacco as the hot-blooded passionate debutante Suzanne; Greg Mandryk as the flamboyant, carefree art dealer Sagot; Roderick Cardwell II as the brooding, erratic, confident Pablo Picasso; Ronnie Thompson as the pompous, sweetly boastful Charles Dabernow Schmendiman; Britta Will as the beautiful, quirky Countess; and last but not least, Evan Martin as the humble, lovelorn, futuristic Singer...* *TO READ THE ENTIRE REVIEW, CLICK HERE: <goog_26916568>* *http://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2017/06/cleve-review-picasso-at-lapin-agile-is.html <http://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2017/06/cleve-review-picasso-at-lapin-…>*
