Oopsies, I meant Scott Michael Foster.I hate it when I accidently invert words. Haha

[LMSBroadway]

Do none of you realize cappiesdad is the father of Michael Scott Foster, who plays Cappie on ABC Family's original show Greek? I think it is really cool watching his early work. He showed promise as an actor even in a play that had to be rushed. Great job to him! :)

[xxxburritolover5xxx]

were doing this play as well in trevor browne high school im sure well do just as great!! (p.s i play maria!)

[UnauthorizedOnly]

this is great! my school is performing this now, and i'm playing Max...so i have 3 days to learn to sing in Italian...but good job guys

[Cuzcuz768]

we're doing this now. i'm excited. you guys are hilarious!

[Nightbourne]

I recently saw a performance of this at C.E.T.A. (California Educational Theatrical Association). You guys have really done the play justice! And your set is actually fairly impressive (especially in comparison to my school's). Great job!

[cappiesdad]

OK...in response to the comments on the lack of lines and the sparse set... this play was rewritten as a 40 minute one-act play for a high school competition. The set had to be very portable and the play could be no longer than 40 minutes...or you get disqualified. Hope this helps!

@cappiesdad those competitions are hard

40 min to set up

perform

and strike set

[AIbandgeek10]

may I ask whats up with that set?

[uffm]

i first saw it at a profesional theater, so i was blessed with the best preformance imaginable. comparing, you're lines where a bit fast, and you didnt realy establish the relationship between Tito and his wife. some the best scenes in the play stem from their relationship. no offence, but i wasnt realy sure who she was until long after she stormed out. but the singing, costumes, set and about 75% of the acting where all great.

[uffm]

dear sir or madam.

i did no mean any harm by my Critisism of your preformance. i merly stated some things that could be dont to improve. as a great man once told me:

"it is better to be told it could be better...Than that it couldnt be worse."

im sorry if i offended you or the actors of this play in any way by my critique. i merly wished to inform you in how you could have bumped the play up...from an exeptional High School preformance to a profesional level.

yours - uffm

[atomgor]

I agree with most of what you said, but this is a high school performance, and for a high school performance I thought it was great. I actually was not in this cast at all and have no association with the company whatsoever. But I am going to start rehearsing soon for the role of Max, you're right a lot of lines were skipped some of the funniest ones, I don't know if it was edited for content (I doubt it) or if they're just running over each other (probably).

[atomgor]

I retract my "snob" comment as well, unprofessional and I apologize

[uffm]

thank you very much.

also i would like to congradulate you on playing Max. he is a funny character. good luck.

(just to say it, why do other schools get the fun ones? my school is doing "Guys and Dolls" :P)

[HannerSheep]

I have some critique. ^_^;;

The set, I think is quite good, especially compared to the one that we have at my school.

The lines are TOO FAST. And I'm wondering why so many lines are being skipped...especially at the begining...

[NearsBestToy]

I have to do this play as an HI idk how to pop between Max and Saunders...

[pwnedsxyass90]

says "Daddy". It not meant to be harsh and it's supposed to be a small blow to Max as in like 'i'll see you later daddy but not you because u scorned me'. Saunders's character is done well but again just everyone needs to slow down. Bellhop just needs to project over all the ruckus that is going on. Projection for all seems to be good- though every1 might be on mics and if so then the theater's sound quality doesnt seem 2 bad. Overall its a good play that is being produced in a mediocre fashion.

[pwnedsxyass90]

My critique on this:

The set is done very poorly. The bedroom is given to much space of the stage causing the living room part to be more cramped than it should be.

The lines are ran thru WAY too fast. everyone needs to slow down. Speeding thru takes away some of the great humor in this show and causes a great strain on the audience to follow what is going on.

So far it seems the characters of Max and Maria are done well. Maggie needs to change the emphesis on likes like when she leaves and

[darkdesigns]

lol, wow. Crap load of lines. ^_^

My school's having an audition for this in a couple days. I'm thinking of going for Saunders.  :D

[hgarsen]

our school is doing this play this year.
