"Get a Clue: The $tocks Caper" -- Opening Weekend
"Get a Clue" cast opened its run Feb. 11th at a Baptist Church in Layton with about 150 in attendance, and then followed with a Friday dinner show with 70 guests and a Saturday show with 150 guests -- both at The Castle in Layton.
Chris "Madman" Madriaga did a great job first playing Col. Dijon Friday night and then Simon Lively Saturday night.
Shea Potter, playing the suave Mr. Mauve Green, did a great job of creating a fun entertaining character to match the British character Col. Dijon, played by Jeremy Jonsson and Madriaga. Heidi Potter as Rose Redd captured the audience with her singing, dancing and fun choreography. What a hoot seeing Jeremy doing that crazy song-and-dance routine with Heidi -- not to mention his great British character. Tonia shines as Mrs. Peahen and matches the strength of Simon Lively, played by Scott Andrew and Madriaga. Krystal Day does a great French maid, Miss Blanc, and shined in the spotlight for her song solo. Then there's Chris Kucera doing a fantastic job on his song/dance -- with the rest of the cast as backup dancers.
Alisha Williams did a great job as director and choreographer, and music director Anjentte Mickelsen really whipped the cast into shape. I loved the harmony in all the songs, and the opening number and reprise really tied the show together and had the audience members all but singing along at the end.
Next up is Boccias on Saturday, Feb. 20th, and then two college shows.
