The recent Curtain Players production of Rebecca Gilman’s contemporary social drama BOY GETS GIRL (April 1-17) was featured in the April 8 edition of Theatre Talk, the blog written by Michael Grossberg, The Columbus Dispatch theater critic.

Grossberg revisited a 2001 interview he did with Gilman. The full blog entry may be accessed at: http://blog.dispatch.com/mgrossberg/2011/04/boy_gets_girl_curtain_players.shtml

April Olt directed the suspenseful story of a hardworking magazine journalist Theresa Bedell (played by Sonda Staley), whose blind date with Tony (Eric James Sarich) upends Theresa’s world. Randy Benge, Sue Rasche, Ben Ritterspach, Jennifer Robinson, and Charlie Sloin complete the cast.

Theatrevault.com earlier this month posted two reviews on the production.

“April Olt directs an incredibly talented cast,” writes Krista Threadgill.

“There is much to commend Curtain Players in the production of BOY GETS GIRL,” Bob Weesner writes.

Each reviewer noted strong individual performances and direction, making special mention of the production design and other technical elements. The full reviews can be seen at: http://theatrevault.com/2011/04/review-roundup-curtain-players%e2%80%99-boy-gets-girl-cunningly-claustrophobic/
