I really feel that all this shameless side-taking is hurting theater as a whole in this valley. Its getting absurd.
Did I like The Full Monty? Yes, immensely.
Will I see Titanic? ABSOLUTELY. And I'm excited to go! I've heard great things about it, and I know I won't be disappointed.
Supporting community theater shouldn't be the artistic version of putting on your Steelers jersey and heading to a Browns bar.
(I would like to say, however that I think its the height of immaturity to make attacks based on a person's sexuality. If you wish to disagree with comments made, thats fine...and people have been real jerks about this issue on BOTH SIDES. But delving to that level is disgraceful.)
Joki, great work on the Full Monty, you heard me laughing several nights, and I always look forward to your work.
Holt, and cast--BREAK A LEG, and I'll be there next weekend!
The audience that I was a part of rode the ride with this cast from beginning to end.
Laughter, tears, screams of excitement...I think you would be very hard-pressed to find an audience more sucked into the production they were watching.
It kills me that the review that I read today doesn't even remotely reflect the performance that I saw. I will of course admit that this show wasn't perfect, and that it did have some areas that could have used some more polishing or improvement.
However, the cast had a triumph in this performance, and if any of them are reading this, I want them to know that I will be there again...hopefully twice...next week, searching for these "irredeemable flaws..."
‘Titanic’ more than just spectacle

Oakland’s ‘Full Monty’: too long, but enjoyable
I guess I must have gone a different day...

Because I'm giving it a 10.
