Mr. Marmalade

Fantastic lead performance with an engaging cast, engaging set, and quick set changes, but I'm not the biggest fan of the play itself.... full review

This is definitely a must see at the Hollywood Fringe this year. This seasoned cast directed by Dennis Neal put on a display of comedy bliss. Melody Ricketts (Lucy) and Paul Major (Mr. Marmalade) put on a showcase that'll have you wanting more at the end. Jameson Cherilus, who plays Bradley, is absolutely phenomenal. His portrayal of Bradley is absolutely hilarious and will leave you with cramps in your stomach from laughing so hard. Go see this play! ... full review

An adult actor playing a child, playing a grown up is no easy thing, but they did it so perfectly! Great direction and staging, simple and effective. The connection between... full review

A Brilliantly performed, engaging and subtle production of Noah Haidle's now-classic acclaimed black comedy, interpreted by the hands of Master Craftsman, Dennis Neal of Riverton Playground Theatre - Lead Actor Melody Ricketts' soul-touching performance owns us with a haunting, gentle, and pleasantly disturbing style that delights, captivates, pleases, belies her youth, and reveals her old soul, predicting a wonderful career to come. Paul Major's titular role rocks with brilliant comic timing, detailed nuance, and consummate skill - while Jameson Cherilus' gentle and detailed interpretation of a conflicted personal assistant is sweet, loving, and long-suffering; layered with constituent choices: a perfect counter point to Melody and Paul's ... full review
