WPCNR ON THE AISLE. Capsule Review by Renee Cohen. June 2, 2008:
Do you like the song “Send in the Clowns”?
If so, you’ll love the Armonk Players’ dazzling presentation of the Stephen Sondheim musical “A Little Night Music” at the North Castle Public Library. Remaining performance are at 7:30 pm Thursday June 5, and at 8 pm on Friday and Saturday, June 6 and 7, 2008. “Send in the Clowns” is one of the musical highlights of this tale of the romantic lives of several couples.
The period (Sweden, 1908) costumes and scenery are creative and colorful, and among the cast members are the multitalented Lynne Barasch, Beth Brandon, Christine Colangelo, Christine DiTota, Judith Pennyfeather, Davina Porter, Larry Reina, and Anthony Valbiro. George Puello, a 30-year veteran of the Westchester Broadway Theatre, is the director and co-choreographer of “A Little Night Music,” which won the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award and the Tony Award for Best Musical in the early ‘70s. George Croom is the music director.
