"Blithe Spirit" at the Globe Playhouse
Fellow casting director Chemin Bernard and went to see the Cowardice Theatre Company's production of Noel Coward's "Blithe Spirit" at the Globe Playhouse. This production was directed by our colleague Gwen Hillier.
This was my first time at the Globe Playhouse. Wow! What a gorgeous space! And this was one of the most lovely sets, best props, most gorgeous costumes I've seen used in Los Angeles theatre. Wow! Great first impression. Ah, yes... I see A. Jeffrey Schoenberg (Faith Salie's friend) did the costumes (with Shon LeBlanc). I remember his amazing work from shows at The Colony. Excellent!
The actors in this fabulous cast were: Mary Jo Catlett (major Broadway credits, simply brilliant), Nicole Dalton (funny; I've gotten her headshot before), Richard Fox, Nicholas Hosking (also producer; has good timing), Marsha Kramer (she could play Debra Jo Rupp's older sister), Anne McVey (needs a new headshot; she's older and lighter than in the photo and she's very cute. Needs a headshot that sells THAT), and Tracy Powell (really lovely; great costume and makeup; I REALLY like this gal).
I noticed from the cast bios in the program that many actors are recurring characters on General Hospital, the show for which Gwen casts (with Mark Teschner). It's all about relationships, baby!
Oh, thank you so much for having the actors NOT smoke, despite having them pick up cigarettes throughout the play as if planning to smoke. That's very considerate!
I'm still not quite sure why I have in my kit a headshot of Terri Marsteiner, stage manager.
Seriously top-notch production, through and through. Great date with Chemin! This was excellent theatre.
