Peanuts and a play
by Luis Lopez
September 25, 2006
The wonderland atmosphere of the musical, "You're a Goodman Charlie Brown" transformed the cartoon world into reality with its childhood melodies and vibrant energies as it opened on Sept 15 at the Church Bistro and Theatre in the King William District.
Director and scenery/costume designer Diane Malone, along with musical director and pianist Tom Masinter, crafted a remarkable performance. The production staff also consisted of dance choreographer Chris Rodriguez, technical director and light/sound designer Rick Malone, stage manager Miriam Leal, drummer Steve Nathanson, and program layout/designer Prima Donna productions.
The acting and music were awe-inspiring. The audience was drawn into Charlie Brown's world immediately as the music began and the actors sang in perfect harmony. Gestures, costumes and voices were exact replicas of the cartoon characters.
In one instance, piano prodigy Schroeder (Rick Sanchez) mime-played his ceramic piano in perfect synchronization with Masinter.
Christopher J. Rodriguez, played a believable Linus, down to the hairstyle and mannerisms as he sucked his thumb while holding on to his blue blanket for comfort. The characters were so well portrayed it was hard to imagine the actors without their costumes and as real people.
A good performance will take you into its world of fantasy and leave you convinced it's real. That's exactly what "Charlie Brown" did. Even Snoopy who wasn't in a complete dog costume was every inch the loveable canine. He wore dog-ears, paws on his feet and hands, and a polka-dot costume, but he moved through the stage with in characteristic Snoopy fashion his coolness and breezy attitude was unbelievable.
Snoopy would make faces behind characters' backs or every time Lucy," would interject, "Hey blockhead."
Lucy's appearance and voice was perfect right down to her loud, bossy and forward mannerisms. Lucy (Hailey Burnside) stole the show even though Charlie Brown was the main character.
Charlie Brown (Ben Gamble) successfully elicited empathy from the audience. Gamble successfully brought Charlie Brown to life with serious attitude, his inability to fit in with others and his fear of his red-headed crush.
Overall this performance was a perfect 10.
The musical will be playing until Oct. 8, 2006. For performance dates and times, visit http://www.churchbistroandtheatre.com/ or call (210) 271-7791.

Last Christmas Hayley was also at the Cameo in a wild new comedy version of "A Christmas Carol(e)" that also received several most interesting reviews and was seen by a troop of cub scouts whose den mother did not recognize some adult humor in the adaptation at the time she booked the seats, thus creating many opportunities for improvizations by the cast.

Newspaper Play Review - February 12 2001 - By Diane Windeler - Special to the Express-News
'Those Crazy Old Ladies' is a hoot By Diane Windeler Special to the Express-News If three elderly sisters chatter like magpies - easily understanding each other, but utterly incomprehensible to anyone else - does that mean they're crazy? And if they're forgetful or relish playing pranks at Halloween, have they really gone 'round the bend? "Eccentric" might be a better description. That's something for audiences at the Steven Stoli Playhouse to ponder in between waves of chuckles and full-out belly laughs during "Those Crazy Old Ladies in the House on the Corner." Directed with choreographic finesse by Larry Schwartz, the Pat Cook comedy deals with quirky, set-in-their-ways women whose lives are unsettled by their caring physician, Dr. Lomax (Jeff Wagner). A friend of the family, he's one of those rare small-town doctors who makes house calls, but wants someone on the premises to watch over the sisters. After all, absent-minded Dora (Sandy Schwartz) makes an art form of irascibility, Lydia (Rachelle Neuman) refuses to leave the house, and Maggie (Kathleen Lovejoy) keeps losing her train of thought. And of course, they all have the usual elderly ailments, allowing the doctor to hatch his plan.
To be sure they are looked after, he places a young nurse, Jean (Hayley Burnside), in their home as a boarder. The ladies resist until he and Jean tell each of them that Jean is there to keep an eye on another of the sisters. Soon the energetic Jean has them doing things, living life again outside their four walls. The fly in this comfortable ointment is Lydia's money-hungry son, Phillip (Stephen Weser), who is determined to put them in a retirement home and sell the house. We won't reveal the O Henry-style ending to this tale, but it pivots on the appearance of the mysterious Jessie (Modrea Mitchell-Reichert). In the meantime, director Schwartz and his capable cast have so much fun with this droll script that the laugh-o-meter is topped at every turn. The best comic bit, however, is the sisters' incessant same-time yammering, done with perfectly dovetailed cadences until they stop on a dime. It's a hoot. Come see for yourself, but make reservations early because the word is out. "Those Crazy Old Ladies in the House on the Corner" plays through Feb. 25 at 8 p.m. Fridays, 7:30 p.m. Saturdays, 2:30 and 7 p.m. Sundays at the Steven Stoli, Wurzbach at Lockhill Selma in The Elms. Call 408-0116. 02/12/2001
