Hi,
I am writing this note to thank-you for the wonderful production of Little Women last weekend. I was amazed at the talent pool you have in your company. Many strong male actors and singers are hard to find in one show. But you had at least five. As well, your female leads were professional. Jo March, was incredible. Beth March was outstanding, both performers professional quality. Meg March was convincing and Amy March was terrific, not to mention Marmee who brought incredible energy to the stage and sang with the most beautiful voice.
I have spent a bit of time going to see local productions and they always have nice costumes and sets, but they didn’t seem to care about the staging so much and the characters were never believable. Your production was downtown. What I mean by that, is that it should have been on a Mirvish stage. Excellent direction and excellent talent. I think what I have discovered about your production in comparison to other companies is that they can’t buy your eye, and your direction. You can’t dress up a present with a pretty set if the gift isn’t top quality, and other companies are suffering in their final product. Aurora Performing Arts Group has a fine quality gift to share.
I have contacted Newmarket Theatre and purchased tickets to the next two productions.
Thank-you
James Gomes
