Elmer Gantry
Uihlein Hall Marcus Center - Milwaukee
The score was beautiful and the book captured the highlights of the novel. We thought all the singers were wonderful and the acting was excellent.

Brilliant contemporary opera with young performers. Opera has all the components of classic opera, including romantic arias, quartets, and a dramatic ending.

Elmer Gantry was provocative!
Signature Theatre - Arlington
Effectively reflective of Bible Belt culture in the U.S. during that era. Fine acting. Engaging. Puts right in your face the conflicts which arise from human flaws, religious fanaticism, and unfettered capitalism. Yet the humorous context served as most of life generally does....to distract us from acknowledging the destructive instincts that we display. No one really wins and we all go on to the next page of the script, rather on earth or thereafter.

Elmer Gantry--great music
Signature Theatre - Arlington
A phenomenal effort in producing a musical about a shuckster minister. Very strong singing cast and an impeccable orchestra with a terrific job at reducing the original score for a smaller venue. All of the actors are first class. The only blemish is that the 2 leads do not strongly define their characters, especially in the beginning. Whether this is intentional or not is not clear, but it leaves the audience not totally clear how evil and canniving Elmer is, or whether his female counterpart is really a true believer. For Christians attending the production, a lot of the music that is set in a "shuckster" setting could legitimately be rousing music in a church service.
