Follow on Google News | PETER AND THE STARCATCHER - the Ultimate Triumph of the UnderdogBrelby Cast Revels in Magical Adventure On and Off the Stage
By: Brelby Theatre Company Stephanie Spencer, who plays Mrs. Bumbrake and the Teacher is equally ebullient. "The best part of this process has been diving into the imaginative universe of this play," she said. "A universe where a box can be a thousand different objects and an actor can be a nanny, a sailor, a pirate, the breeze, and a mermaid within an hour. It's such a joy to dive head first into a world where anything is possible with such an inventive and supportive group of excellent actors. My favorite part of the show is the whirlwind that is the end of Act 1. Who doesn't like a good, chaotic, high sea adventure? Peter and the Starcatcher has the kind of magic that takes the audience on a journey with the performers. The line between audience and actor is totally blurred, and everybody gets to be an adventurer in this story with characters that we all know and adore. People grow up too fast, and for the few hours that they're in this room, they get to play, explore, laugh, cry, imagine, and be a kid again. It's a truly joyful experience, and one not to be missed." "The best part of this process has been being a part of an ensemble cast that gets to play so many of these awesome characters," Elizabeth Lyon, who plays Captain Robert Falcon Scott, agrees. "It has been amazing watching all my cast mates develop their characters. These characters are what make this show so incredible," Jonathan Gradilla, who plays Ted, also enthusiastically concurred. "The best part of the process of creating this show was seeing all the characters come to life through each and every actor. It is incredibly fun to see all the different identities we have to create with each character and how how different they are from one another. My favorite part of the show is the relationship between the four children. How different and headstrong they are, and how they eventually realize they need to work together to complete their dangerous mission. This show has humor, action, suspense and magic! What else could you ask for in a show?" Brelby partners with local downtown Glendale businesses to offer more options for audience members.
