Let me start with the main characters who were awesome. Here is Danette Holden who plays Reno Sweeney. She had such a powerful voice and was amazing. She could dance, act and sing. The triple threat. She had such a great presence on the stage.
Another two wonderful cast members are Alessa Neeck who plays Hope Harcourt and Eric Ulloa who plays Billy Crocker. They were so good and you could see the chemistry. Eric at one point pretended he was an older woman with a veil over her face and my kids were in hysterics. They really enjoyed him. He showed many sides as he had to pretend he was many types of people in the show.
We were so impressed by her and the whole show was so comical. Both of my kids absolutely loved it and were laughing all through the show. David Scott Purdy was so funny as Moonface Martin. He totally had us cracking up. Plus there is tap dancing which we absolutely love. Both Lauren and I are tap dancers so we loved that.
Michael Mastro plays Lord Evelyn Oakleigh. He is super funny in the show as he trying to learn American slang sayings. It is so funny watching him say things out of context and take notes as he is trying to learn what things mean.
Susa Cella as Mrs. Harcourt (Hope's Mom) and Tom Gleadow as Elisha Whitney are great also. Tom's lines were pretty funny. Especially he is a drinker in the show. Mrs. Harcourt also has some funny lines throughout the show.
Here is a video preview of the show:
